Set of 4 Model 31 Dining Chairs by Kai Kristiansen in Teak, 1960s

A classic and highly coveted set of four Model 31 dining chairs, designed by the Danish modernist master Kai Kristiansen circa 1960. This set is a definitive example of Danish Modern design, blending organic forms with exceptional ergonomic engineering.

The chairs are masterfully crafted from solid teak, displaying a rich, honey-toned grain and the iconic curved backrests that define the Model 31 silhouette. A hallmark of Kristiansen’s genius, the elegantly tapered "floating" armrests provide both a light, architectural aesthetic and superior comfort.

This particular set is upholstered in a fabric that offers a sophisticated textural contrast to the smooth, solid teak frames. The combination of the warm wood and the soft textile makes them an ideal choice for an Organic Modern or Mid-Century inspired interior.

As one of the most recognizable and comfortable chairs of the era, the Model 31 remains a staple for serious collectors and interior designers alike. This set represents a rare opportunity to acquire a quintessentially Danish design in a beautiful and well-preserved condition.
