Regal Endorsement: The Elizabeth Chair
The iconic Elizabeth Chair, also known as Model U56, bears the mark of royal endorsement, earning its name after Queen Elizabeth II's acquisition of two chairs during a historic visit to Denmark in 1958. With sculpted armrests and a sleek shape, it stands as a testament to Kofod-Larsen's design legacy.
Global Recognition and Influence
Kofod-Larsen's influence extends far beyond Denmark's borders, with his designs gracing the collections of famous furniture manufacturers worldwide. From Finland to the United States, his collaborations with esteemed brands such as Petersens and Selig have solidified his status as a visionary in the realm of furniture design.

Lastly, the chair features CNC-carved wooden parts, meticulously hand-polished and oiled for a smooth finish. Available in oak or walnut, with various upholstery choices.

Decades after their creation, Kofod-Larsen's masterpieces continue to captivate collectors and design enthusiasts alike. From the airy sophistication of the Penguin Chair to the mid-century modern allure of the Sälen armchair, his creations seamlessly blend vintage charm with contemporary relevance. Moreover, their timeless elegance transcends eras, making them coveted pieces in today's design landscape.

How comfortable are Scandinavian chairs?
Scandinavian Stressless chairs are renowned for their exceptional comfort. They offer soft seating and excellent but subtle ergonomics tailored to different relaxation needs.
What makes a lounge chair comfortable?
As they are typically larger than side chairs, they can create more ergonomic support. Often their shapes are designed to conform to your body's contours.
Should accent chairs like Audo's match the sofa?
While it's a matter of personal preference, mixing and matching furniture styles can create a unique and personalised living room. Some prefer a cohesive look with matching pieces. Others opt for varied styles for added visual interest.
Should an accent chair have a different colour?
Accent chairs don't necessarily need to match each other or the room's colour scheme precisely. Instead, they should complement and flow with the overall aesthetic. This adds personality and depth to the space, including when considering the Audo Elizabeth Chair.
How do I choose a good lounge chair?
Consider factors like space, functionality, shape, upholstery, and purpose when selecting a lounge chair. Whether opting for contemporary or classic designs, a well-chosen lounge chair can transform your space into a haven of comfort and style, much like the Audo Elizabeth Chair.

Olson + Baker were wonderful to deal with.
We purchased our item (a beautiful coat hook) but had to delay delivery due to a trip overseas.
We weren't dealing with an automated system, just real people who cared enough to help.
Fantastic customer service throughout the ordering process.
Great products - really pleased with my order.
So glad I came across Olson & Baker for my home accessories that I would not find elsewhere on the High Street.
Great range of products.
Purchased a beautiful rug from here and had a smooth overall buying experience.
Lovely website, great communication, fast delivery and they came in at a price other shops couldn't compete with on the chair I was after.

It has been an absolute pleasure buying a lovely piece of furniture from Olsen + Baker. Russell has been a delight to deal with, keeping me informed at every step of the delivery, even down to which colour would fit with my decor - nothing was too much.
I can’t recommend highly enough.
