“Swivel Chair”. Chair with solid wengé back, chromium-plated steel frame mounted on four castors. Seat upholstered with light brown elegance leather. Model PP 502. Designed 1955. Made approx. 2010s by PP Møbler, stamped. Model presented at The Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark, 1955. Literature: Grete Jalk [ed.]: “40 Years of Danish Furniture Design”, vol. 3, pp. 324–327. Literature: Johan Møller Nielsen, “Wegner en dansk møbelkunstner”, ill. p. 56. Wegner was inspired by Consultant, Professor and Doctor of Medicine & PhD Egill Snorrasons critique, which was aimed at the entire Danish design and furniture trade for not paying enough attention to ergonomics. In his critique, however, Snorrason had actually pointed out that Wegners Cow Horn Chair was in fact an ergonomically correct exception to the rule, and the two passionate professionals engaged in a dialogue, which resulted in the Swivel Chair with a large piece of solid wood to support the lower back.
