A glance at designer Chris Liljenberg Halstrøm’s dining or desk chair reveals its all-too-pleasing proportions and comfortably curved seat and backrest. Fashioned in sustainably sourced oiled oak, the golden wood naturally contrasts with the brass detailing of the transverse rod that indicates where to pull out the chair. Rounded legs continue up into the backrest and form a small hook for hanging a purse, another discreet touch. Named “Furniture of the Year” by the Danish Design Awards, Vester’s many fine points underscore its timeless character.
