ABOUT PRODUCTID 23514
The set of four Compass chairs, designed by Kai Kristiansen for the Danish manufacturer SVA Møbler in the 1960s, exemplifies the principles of Scandinavian mid-century modernism. The construction is based on carefully selected oak wood in a light, warm tone, finished with a matte coating that highlights the natural grain. The contoured seats and backrests are upholstered in a new, thick light grey fabric with a soft, subtly textured surface. The geometric arms and legs splay outwards, reminiscent of a compass—an iconic detail that gives the model its name. The joinery is meticulously crafted, with no visible screws or metal fittings, underscoring the project’s commitment to artisanal quality. The proportions are harmonious, and the gently curved backrests provide ergonomic support. The set is presented in fully restored condition—all elements are authentic, the upholstery is new, and there are no visible signs of wear or patina.These chairs evoke the story of Danish modernism from the 1960s, a time when functionality met understated sophistication. Their form needs no ornamentation—just the interplay of oak grain and the softness of grey upholstery to recall the atmosphere of northern interiors, defined by light and material. The Compass model speaks in the voice of an era where simplicity and balance addressed everyday needs—the seat invites conversation, the curved backrest suggests relaxation after a long day. Every detail, from the splay
