With its organic form and high quality of craftsmanship the Metropolitan chair falls within the golden era of furniture history, known as Danish Modern. Larsen and Bender Madsen met while studying under leading Danish designer Kaare Klint at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Together they designed approximately 300 works, of which the Metropolitan Chair is considered their most significant. The chair got its breakthrough at the exhibition The Arts of Denmark at the Metropolitan Museum of Arts in New York in 1960, where the most prominent of Danish design was showcased. The chair was consequently named the Metropolitan Chair. The Metropolitan Chair is available in oak and walnut with various surface treatments and saddle leather upholstery in natural, cognac or black. ![LM92 Metropolitan with leather padding](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_1410xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92-oak-cognac-above_MK-Foldingtable-oak.jpg) ![LM92 Metropolitan with leather padding](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_1410xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92-oak-cognac_MK-Foldingtable-oak.jpg) ![LM92 Metropolitan with leather padding](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_1410xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92-walnut-black_MK-Foldingtable-walnut.jpg) ![Lm92 Walnut Black Saddle Leather Back](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92_walnut-black-saddle-leather_back.jpg)![Lm92 Oak Natural Saddle Leather Back](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92_oak-natural-saddle-leather_back.jpg) ![Lm92 Walnut Black Saddle Leather Side](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92_walnut-black-saddle-leather_side.jpg)![Lm92 Walnut Black Saddle Leather Front](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/LM92_walnut-black-saddle-leather_front.jpg) ![Lm92 Oak Natural Saddle Leather Side](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_90_none/LM92_oak-natural-saddle-leather_side.jpg) - [Manufacturer's website](http://www.carlhansen.com) - [All products by Carl Hansen & Søn @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/products/manufacturer/carl-hansen-son) - [Carl Hansen & Søn @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/manufacturer/carl-hansen-son) Carl Hansen & Søn Related Articles [DESIGN Hardwoods, Hand-Made, Hansen 7/3/2023 Our author Claudia Simone Hoff paid a visit to Carl Hansen & Søn: In the factory on the Danish island of Funen she found out what is behind a classic furniture item such as the “Wishbone Chair” by Hans J.
