VL1100 – The perfect dining chair

A VERMUND classic brought back to life VL1100, also known as the “eye chair”, is an expressive dining chair designed by Vermund Larsen in 1956. VL1100 is an impressive dining chair that immediately catches attention with its unique, organically shaped backrest. The chair exudes elegance with its combination of complementary materials: FSC-certified wood, conical-shaped legs in wood or steel, and seat upholstery in fabric or leather. The VL1100 is finished by hand at our facilities in Aalborg. The material composition of the VL1100 reflects the trends in Danish furniture design in the 1950s. Yet the VL1100 design is timeless, and the chair’s light and elegant construction makes a stylish statement in any room.

Materials

All wood surfaces on the VL1100 are FSC-certified and produced by Danish manufacturers. The chair comes in three different variations: natural oak, black painted oak, and walnut. All surfaces are treated with a matte lacquer that requires minimal maintenance.

All textiles and leather surfaces are produced by Danish quality manufacturers and chairs are carefully upholstered using comfortable high-quality foam. We offer the following fabrics: Capture, Mood, Crisp, Hallingdal, and Re-wool as well as several different types of quality leather.

The frame is made of 20% recycled steel, which reduces the environmental impact of the steel’s resource-demanding extraction process.

The chair has reversible sliders, which prevent it from sliding on carpets and hardwood floors.

All chairs are finished by hand at our local production facilities in Aalborg, and each chair has its own unique ID-number with a 6-year warranty.

A dynamic and comfortable chair

The chair has excellent seating comfort and provides perfect back support. The seat provides excellent comfort in different seating positions, and the rounded top and “eye” carvings on the moulded, wooden backrest create energy in the chair´s visual expression.

The backrest is an essential part of the VL1100’s unique look, and the chair’s detail and finish highlight Vermund Larsen’s understanding of a simple and accomplished design. The slim legs make the chair light and elegant.

Originally created in fibreglass and steel, the VL1100 was the culmination of several years of work with fibreglass as a formative expression. The year before the VL1100 went into production, Europe’s first fibreglass chair was created by Vermund and Danish designer Ib Kofod Larsen in close collaboration. Several cafés around Copenhagen had the pleasure of being able to show off these innovative fibreglass chairs when they first became commercially available. In this reinterpretation of the VL1100, natural materials such as wood and leather have been chosen in favour of a fibreglass shell.
