ABOUT PRODUCTID 31031
The model 8400 chair, designed by Jorgen Kastholm for Kusch & Co., stands as an exemplar of late modernist German design from the 1980s. Its construction is defined by a sleek, polished chrome tubular steel frame, creating a dynamic contrast with the deep black genuine leather upholstery. The leather surface is smooth and gently padded, featuring horizontal stitched channels across the seat and backrest that offer both visual rhythm and enhanced comfort. The straight, cylindrical legs ensure a stable presence, while the leather-clad armrests are supported by elegantly curved chrome elements. Attention to construction detail—including exposed bolts and precise welds—reflects a functionalist tradition rooted in Bauhaus and Scandinavian minimalism. The chair measures a generous 69 cm in width, 66 cm in depth, and 81 cm in height, with a seat height of 47 cm, emphasizing both comfort and presence. The listed price refers to a single piece. The condition is very good, with the upholstery retaining its quality and only visible wear as patina on the armrests—natural evidence of use.
This chair carries the quiet confidence of the 1980s, a time when the discipline of modernist form met the tactile warmth of new materials. The satin sheen of the leather and the reflective chrome create a subtle interplay of light, offering a setting as much for contemplation as for work. The patina
