Product Details

Product Description

The Fritz Hansen production label from July 1965 proudly marks this exquisite set of the Saint Catherines desk and chair in laminated oak, masterfully designed by the renowned Danish architect Arne Jacobsen. Our skilled cabinetmaker has carefully restored and refinished the set to ensure its excellent condition. The desk measures D 72.5/28.5, W 119.5/47, H 71/28 inches, while the chair boasts dimensions of D 49/19.3, W 44/17.3, H 79/31.1, and SH 43/16.9 inches. Jacobsen's expertise in architecture and design is evident in his creation of the "Oxford" series of furnishings, including the laminated oak desk, chair, lounge chair, and low table with a cushion and footstool, all designed exclusively for the dorm rooms at St. Catherines College. Located on the Cherwell riverbanks towards the east of Oxford, the college buildings are striking with their sleek glass and concrete design, blending both modern and traditional elements. Jacobsen's visionary architecture extended beyond the physical structures to include his unique design of cutlery, furniture, and lamp shades.
