The Penguin Upholstered Rocking Chair

The Penguin Rocking Chair draws inspiration from the American modernists of the 1950s and 1960s. The chair’s construction is characterized by an open design, featuring a curved back and seat upholstered in fabric or leather, all held together by a sturdy steel frame. This chair, created by furniture designer Ib Kofod-Larsen in 1953, embodies Danish cultural heritage and design history. With its elegant silhouette, sculptural form, and organic lines and curves, it remains a contemporary masterpiece that resonates even more strongly in the present.
