Pragh Chair

Introducing

Henry Schubell (1906-2001)

Deeply rooted in history, Schubell stands as an iconic figure whose vision and expertise have inspired generations. Born and raised in the charming coastal town of Helsingør in 1906, Schubell was drawn to the unique beauty of wood from a young age.

A landmark event was the meeting with the upholsterer Arnold Madsen, which resulted in a pioneering partnership known as "Madsen & Schubell". Together, they revolutionized the furniture industry with their joint brand, which not only stood for craftsmanship quality, but also for innovative design and aesthetic appeal.

Historical heritage, modern innovation and current relevance

The Pragh chair from 1948 stands as an iconic symbol of functionalism and elegant design from the 20th century. Now, many decades later, the Pragh Chair is being relaunched to adapt to modern lifestyles and requirements for materials, while still paying tribute to the visionary spirit of the original design. The relaunched Pragh chair is thus not just a piece of furniture, but a symbol of how historical heritage can inspire new innovation and maintain its relevance over the centuries.

The Pragh Chair is available in four different variants: natural oiled oak, white oiled oak, smoked oak and walnut, which, combined with a curated selection of quality textiles, ensures a timeless expression in a modern setting.
