Provenance: Architect Ejner Graae, since by descent in family. Ejner Graae was employed by Arne Jacobsen together with Flemming Lassen during the period from 1936 until 1943. After he graduated as an architect in 1940 he was married and on this occassion ordered furniture for a complete living room, furniture that was all designed by Flemming Lassen, and that was made by cabinetmaker Jacob Kjær. In 1943 he established his own studio and here he became partner with exactly Flemming Lassen. The chair is a model that was first presented at the Copehagen Cabinetmaker´ Guild´Exhibtion in 1935. This is the only known example of this model, even though a few probably have been made by special order.
