Very comfortable and quite rare corner chair in solid brazilian rosewood and black leather. The chair can also be enjoyed with or without the cushions due to its ergonomically curved supports. Only the best rosewood was used for this model according to the Magnus Olesen book. The cushions are slightly curved, truncated and assymetrical. Produced for only several years, the Univers series by Kai Kristiansen was exclusive and both very expensive and difficult to manufacture. Very attractive from all angles. Restored condition. Very slight markings on the leather and frame. Discussed in: "Magnus Olesen 1937-1987" Frederik Sieck. Fiskars Forlag. (Page 31) "Kai Kristiansen - An industrious designer" Sisse Bro. Arnoldsche (Page 80).
