A RARE PAIR OF TEAK 'MODEL 138' LOUNGE CHAIRS, DANISH, 1961, by FINN JUHL FOR FRANCE & SONS, on tapering legs, bearing makers labels (2). While working as an architect Finn Juhl began to design furniture which was first shown at the 1937 Copenhagen Cabinetmakers Guild exhibition and in 1941, The Juhl House marked the very beginning of open plan living, with garden views from every room. The organic furniture was designed to be comfortable, using the best materials. In the 1950s he began to export his furniture, particularly to the USA. This was the first time that Danish design was seen internationally and so it is Finn Juhl's designs that people most associate with the Danish aesthetic. The Model 138, which highlights Juhls signature 'floating' seat and backrest was designed in 1961 and manufactured in Denmark by France & Sons. Founded in 1950 by a British businessman Charles France and his Danish partner Inger Daverkosen. France and Son was the first Danish design company to have its own factory. They made furniture of the highest calibre and Charles France, the company's founder, refused to join the Association for Quality in Denmark after its creation, saying that their standards would never match those of his factory. The company came to epitomise the Danish modern aesthetic, working with the major designers of the day including Arne Vodder, Grete Jalk, Peter Hvidt and Finn Juhl.
