The Legacy of J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik
Founded by Niels Otto Møller in the 1940s, J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik is a cornerstone of Danish furniture design, renowned for its handcrafted chairs that blend minimalist aesthetics with superior craftsmanship. From the iconic Model 71 and Model 55 (1951), selected for Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hanna House, to the sophisticated Model 82 (Embassy Chair, 1974), Møller’s designs have graced homes, embassies, and renowned establishments like Copenhagen’s Noma restaurant.
Each chair is meticulously crafted with clean lines, organic curves, and high-quality materials, embodying the essence of Scandinavian modern design. Today, the family-run company, led by the third generation, continues to innovate while honoring its heritage with models like the 77C and 77B counter and barstools (2016).
