Description

The Arctander ottoman by Paustian invites you to lift your feet up and relax. The charming ottoman completes the look of the Arctander armchair, but its beautiful soft appearance makes it a great match with other chairs and sofas as well. Upholstered in luxurious sheepskin, the ottoman also works perfectly on its own as a small stool or an extra seat for surprise guests.

The Arctander chair is an iconic piece of Nordic design from the 1940s. Named after its designer, Philip Arctander, the chair has over the years been known familiarly as the name 'Muslingestolen', mussel chair – a reference to the chair's shell-like appearance. The mussel chair was produced in limited numbers until 2016 when Paustian re-launched the design classic in collaboration with Philip Arctander's granddaughter Sofie.

Philip Arctander

Philip Arctander (1916-1944) was a Danish architect, best known for his Muslingestol chair. The classic chair, also known as the Mussel Chair, was originally created almost by chance: in 1944, Arctander and five other architects were asked to design furniture as part of a competition sponsored by the supplier and store NY FORM A/S. Arctander designed the Muslingestol armchair with beech legs and sheepskin, which was released in a limited edition. The chair eventually became so popular that Nordic suppliers such as Ikea and Vik & Blindheim began to produce their own versions of it. Arctander left furniture design at the turn of the 1940s and 1950s, but the shell-shaped chair is still produced by the Danish company Paustian for the delight of all design lovers.
