Originally designed in 1947 by Hans J. Wegner, the PP550 Peacock Chair remains one of the most iconic masterpieces of Danish modern design. Named by Finn Juhl, who admired its distinctive fan-shaped backrest, the chair earned its “Peacock” title for the graceful, sculptural silhouette reminiscent of a peacock’s feathers.
Every detail of the PP550 celebrates the artistry of woodworking. The solid ash wood frame showcases refined curves and clean lines, while the hand-woven rush cord seat provides both comfort and enduring durability. Its organic form is not only visually striking but also ergonomically supportive—particularly at the shoulder blades—ensuring it is as functional as it is beautiful.
Professionally crafted with solid wood backrest (no finger joints) and finished in a natural eco-friendly oil-based stain, this chair blends sustainability with enduring style. Made from non-toxic, baby-friendly materials, it’s a safe and stylish choice for homes with children while maintaining museum-worthy appeal.
