Along with Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen and Borge Mogensen, Finn Juhl was one of the great masters of mid-20th-century Danish design. Juhl was the first among that group to have his work promoted overseas, bringing the character of the nation?s furnishings ? and the inherent principles of grace, craftsmanship and utility on which they were based ? to an international audience. A stylistic maverick, Juhl embraced expressive, free-flowing shapes in chair and sofa designs much earlier than his colleagues, yet even his quietest pieces incorporate supple, curving forms that are at once elegant and ergonomic.

Juhl quickly won a following for such signature designs as the supremely comfortable Chieftan lounge chair, the biomorphic Baker sofa, and this Judas table, ornamented with stylish inlaid silver plaquettes.

Professionally restored. Excellent condition. Very minor wear expected from age and use.

Liberty & 33rd is an online retailer, offering a carefully curated collection of 18th to 20th century European and American furniture and other home furnishings. As a leading supplier of antique, vintage and contemporary furniture, we're trusted by professional designers all over the world to meet their clients' needs. Our monthly auctions are your chance to bid on a selection of our inventory with reserves well below retail prices!

A reserve price is a minimum price that a seller would be willing to accept from a buyer. In an auction, the seller is not typically required to disclose the reserve price to potential buyers. If the reserve price is not met, the seller is not required to sell the item, even to the highest bidder. (In other words, the starting bid can be less than the reserve, but the item cannot be sold until it reaches the minimum reserve bid.) Most lots in our auctions have a reserve, often near the low estimate.
