Hans Olsen Suede lounge chair pair for Lusch – 1950s mid-century

A rare, original pair of lounge chairs designed by renowned Danish designer Hans Olsen and manufactured by the German company Lusch in the 1950s. These chairs are outstanding examples of mid-century modern design, blending Scandinavian organic forms with German industrial precision. With their iconic bowl-shaped seat and minimalist yet sculptural silhouette, they remain timeless and visually striking. The chairs feature a black-lacquered tubular steel frame, subtly patinated with minor wear consistent with age, which adds character without compromising structural integrity. The seat is formed from the original red suede leather, now beautifully aged into a warm, natural tone. The upholstery is stitched from panels and secured with black cord around the edge—highlighting the handcrafted construction and enhancing the chair’s vintage appeal. The deep, ergonomic seat offers surprising comfort and visual presence, making these chairs ideal for a modern interior, reading corner, or design-focused lounge. Their historical and aesthetic value makes them especially attractive to collectors and mid-century enthusiasts. An authentic and iconic Hans Olsen design – a true mid-century masterpiece in excellent, original condition.
