{"title":"Poul M. Volther","description":"Danish architect and furniture designer Poul M. Volther (1923–2001) was a prominent figure of the Danish Modern movement, dedicated to crafting functional, democratic seating that rejected fleeting trends. Trained as a cabinetmaker and educated at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts, Volther succeeded Børge Mogensen in 1950 as design director at FDB Møbler, where he championed honest craftsmanship and accessible, mass-producible wood furniture.\n\nVolther is world-renowned for the legendary Corona Chair (1964), manufactured by Erik Jørgensen (now part of Fredericia). Defined by its floating, elliptical upholstered cushions set upon a sculptural spring-steel frame, it became an international mid-century icon. For FDB Møbler, he also conceived timeless everyday classics like the solid-beech spindle-back J46 Chair and the J110 high-back armchair.","products":[{"product_id":"j46-chair-beech-black","title":"J46 Chair - Beech","description":"The FDB Møbler J46 Chair designed by Poul M. Volther in 1956 is one of the most recognizable and beloved pieces of Danish furniture, serving as a defining example of the functionalist design movement. Originally created to provide high-quality, affordable seating for the average home, the chair is characterized by its lightweight construction and an airy, fan-shaped backrest made of slender wooden spindles. These vertical slats are ergonomically curved to follow the shape of the back, offering a high degree of comfort despite the lack of upholstery. The seat features a subtle scoop and is supported by four tapered legs that are reinforced with cross-bracing for enhanced stability and longevity. Constructed primarily from solid beech or oak, the chair’s design is a refined evolution of the classic Windsor chair, stripped of all ornamentation to achieve a clean and modern aesthetic. Its versatility and timeless silhouette have made it a staple in both residential kitchens and sophisticated public spaces. Dimensions for the chair are 45 centimeters wide, 48 centimeters deep, and 80 centimeters high, with a seat height of 45 centimeters. Today, the J46 is produced in a wide variety of contemporary colors as well as classic natural wood finishes, allowing it to adapt to both traditional and avant-garde interior schemes while maintaining its status as a cornerstone of Danish design history.","brand":"FDB Møbler","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":49800819081537,"sku":null,"price":1349.92,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/4150\/0993\/files\/3a4e79dc-d576-45f6-b213-92b608c4583a.webp?v=1793165948"},{"product_id":"corona-chair-5000-omni-301-leather-chrome-stand","title":"Corona Chair 5000","description":"The Corona Chair is an eye-catching and experimental take on Danish design.
