Charlottenborg

BY ARNE JACOBSEN

The Charlottenborg lounge chair was designed

by Arne Jacobsen in 1936. The lounge chair was

showcased for the first time at the Charlottenborg

spring exhibition in 1937, and since then named

after the castle. The chair was originally named

A.J 237 and was part of a series of original rattan

chairs.

The Charlottenborg chair was one of Arne

Jacobsen’s own favorite lounge chairs and part

of the interior design in his famous vacation

home ‘Knarken’ built in 1938. In the iconic

Charlottenborg series you can also find a 2-seater

sofa and a coffee table.
