J104 chair, dark oiled oak
Description
J104 dining chair is Jørgen Baekmark's interpretation of a classic spindled armchair. Made of solid beechwood with a wide, curved backrest, J104 makes a comfortable and lovable dining chair in any interior.
J104 chair is part of HAY's 2011 relaunch of the Danish furniture classics originally made for FDB, the Danish Consumers’ Co-operative Society. FDB’s furniture production started in the 1940s and their main idea was functionalist and democratic design for the people. Thanks to industrial production, FDB was able to manufacture high-quality design furniture for ordinary people at relatively low prices.
In 2021, HAY renewed the surface treatments of its wood furniture by replacing their paints and lacquers with more environmentally friendly, water-based alternatives. This chair is of newer production and has been finished with a water-based lacquer.

Jørgen Bækmark (1929–2021) was a Danish cabinetmaker and designer who led the design team of FDB, the Danish Consumers’ Co-operative, from 1958 to 1967. He first trained as a cabinetmaker and later studied furniture design at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts.
Bækmark’s design philosophy emphasized usability and human-centered thinking: furniture should adapt to the body – not the other way around. His work is known for its soft lines, timeless appeal and harmonious expression, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern esthetics.
