A masterpiece of mid-century modern design, the Pelican Chair by Finn Juhl stands as one of the most visionary lounge chairs ever created. Originally designed in 1940 but not brought into production until 2001, this chair reflects Juhl’s bold, sculptural language — where form and comfort converge in perfect harmony.
Hand-upholstered in sumptuous sheepskin, the Pelican’s organic contours and enveloping silhouette evoke a sense of tactile warmth and calm. The natural softness and subtle sheen of the sheepskin enrich the chair’s expressive curves, creating a seat that’s as inviting to use as it is striking to behold.
Resting on a finely crafted walnut wood base, the Pelican Chair balances its sculptural form with grounded elegance. Its low, open profile and generous proportions make it ideal for relaxed lounging — whether as an intimate reading spot or a sculptural accent in a contemporary living space.
As with all House of Finn Juhl pieces, every chair is made by skilled Danish artisans, hand-stitched and assembled with meticulous attention to detail. The result is a chair that not only embodies the warmth and human-centered ethos of Scandinavian design, but also stands as a timeless icon of elevated comfort and artistic craftsmanship.
