Theodor Harlev's 'Model 205' Dining Chair for Danish maker Farstrup has become an icon of progressive mid-century Scandinavian design. These beautiful chairs feature a curvaceous backrest supported by a memorable compass form that references the technical drawing instrument the name is synonymous with.
In New Zealand during the mid-century era there were prohibitively high import duties, introduced to promote local production and industry.
