A set of six Kaare Klint 'Red Chairs', small model.

Profiled legs of Cuban mahogany, seat and back upholstered with original red Nigerian goat leather and fitted with brass nails.

Executed by cabinetmaker Rud. Rasmussen, Denmark.

The Red chairs are designed in three chairs in different sizes. This model (model 3949) is known as the small red chair.

Beautiful original condition. The provenance is from the same estate  and the chairs have the same level of patina.

Kaare Klint designed the small chair, Model 3949, in 1928 as a smaller version of the "Red" chair, which was originally designed for the Danish Museum of Decorative Art in 1927. The chair was named after the red Niger leather that the chairs were covered with.
