High-end dining chair design within Denmark focuses on the design statement of each piece matching it’s quality and also having ample comfort for daily use.

Danish Oak Dining Chairs
The native blood woods of Scandinavia have taken contemporary dining design trends by storm. Modern homeowners by and large have come to favour the muted neutrals of European blond woods over the traditional imported teak which dominated mid-century Danish design. Contemporary Scandinavian wooden dining chairs offer flexibility within dining room interiors, the blond oaks, being natural neutrals, can be warmed or cooled using wood oil finishing. Lacquer or traditional oiling enhance the natural grains for added warmth, whilst white pigmented oil, tones the wood, removing yellow hues to achieve a purely contemporary Nordic dining aesthetic.
High-end Scandinavian Dining Chairs
The term 'Scandinavian' refers to all the Nordic nations yet is used most often in reference to Denmark, Sweden & Norway. There is no one Danish dining chair which can epitomise accurately the Scandinavian aesthetic even Wegner’s wishbone dining chair. Rather, the true Danish chair results from each designer following the principles of simplicity, functionality, craftsmanship and the working of natural materials. The most comfortable Scandinavian dining chairs have historically tended to originate from Denmark due to the historic influence of Danish designer Kaare Klint. Through Klint’s fastidious studies the concept of what we now refer to as ergonomics was conceived; a system of determining the perfect dimensions for a piece of furniture based upon the human body.
