Set of 6 ''Razor Back'' chairs by Henning kjaernulf for Nyrup Møbelfabrik 1970

Product information:
A set of six original Brutalist dining chairs designed by the renowned Danish designer Henning Kjærnulf and produced by Nyrup Møbelfabrik during the 1970s. This is the rarer early execution of the design, highly sought after by collectors of Scandinavian Brutalist furniture.

The chairs are defined by their characteristic “razor blade” or razorback backrests, featuring a sculptural yet balanced silhouette typical of the Brutalism aesthetic. The carefully shaped cut-outs introduce a strong visual rhythm while maintaining restraint, structure, and a high level of craftsmanship.

Constructed from solid European oak, the chairs have developed a rich, dark patina over time that enhances the natural grain and depth of the wood. Their sturdy construction and clean, geometric lines give them a grounded, timeless presence, while the gently shaped seats ensure practical everyday comfort. Subtle design details—such as the precise angle of the backrests and the ergonomically pre-formed oak seats—reflect the thoughtful design approach behind the set.

This six-chair set stands as an iconic example of Danish Brutalist furniture design, combining sculptural expression with functional clarity.
