GOLIATH armchair

THE CHAIR FOR THE BEST OF TIMES

The GOLIAT armchair, designed by Poul M. Volther in 1953, was then created for Copenhagen's Møbelsnedker exhibition. GOLIAT has previously only been produced in a few copies, and was rediscovered by chance by Poul M. Volther's son at a Swedish auction. It has therefore never been in production elsewhere than here with us.

GOLIAT has a beautiful, minimalist look, with surprisingly high seating comfort. It can stand alone with its stylish lines, but it can also be very easily combined with other furniture to create a varied and personal expression in the home. For the GOLIAT armchair, you also have the option of choosing a footstool, drawn with the same line as the chair, for even greater comfort.

The Nordic Ecolabel® or traceable leather

With the GOLIAT armchair you can choose between Dunes leather from Sørensen, SPOOR leather and of course several different textile types and colours.

The natural Dunes leather is Swan-labelled® and therefore completely untreated. This means that over time it will give the furniture a beautiful patina. There is therefore no surface treatment on the leather, and therefore the leather accepts all grease, dirt, color and scratches. Over time, spots will also become smaller, lighter and possibly disappear completely. Therefore, it is recommended that you avoid using water and soap.

You can also choose traceable leather from SPOOR. This type of leather is Oeko-tex certified and can be traced all the way back to the animal's birth. At the same time, it is easy to wipe off with a dry or hard-wrung cloth, should the accident happen.

HALLINGDAL 65

Hallingdal 65 from Kvadrat was designed in 1965 by Nanna Ditzel, and is a mix between wool and viscose. The wool provides good durability and flexibility, while the viscose gives shine and depth to the colors. You therefore get a very high-quality textile that is durable and in a timeless design.

FSC®-certified oak

In GOLIAT, you get an armchair handmade from oak from FSC®-certified forests (FSC® N002763). The wood is lacquered with either matt or black lacquer. The varnish is water-based, as it helps to maintain a good indoor climate and that you avoid unnecessary stress on the environment. In this way, you also get an armchair that stays beautiful for several years, without the need for additional care. If the accident happens and you spill on the wood, just wipe your chair with a dry or hard-wrung cloth, otherwise the liquid can soak in and damage the surface. No other treatment is necessary. When the GOLIAT chair has become older and has perhaps gotten scratches over the years, you can sand the GOLIAT armchair down and treat it again.

The designer - Poul M. Volther

Poul M. Volther, born in 1923 and died in 2001, is one of Denmark's best architects who have deep roots in good craftsmanship. His style was based on Scandinavian functionalism, which with a modern twist found a middle ground between the Bauhaus style and the classic, practical work. He thus avoided getting stuck in various short-lived trends, and instead designed works that capture people's attention across time. Poul M. Volther's style was simple, functional and beautiful. Which has resulted in a large number of his design classics finding their way into many thousands of Danish homes, where they are still seen today.
