Designed by Helge Sibast in 1953, the dining chair Sibast No 8 soon made its way into homes all over the world due to its sublime quality and iconic design. The chair has been re-launched by the fourth generation of the Sibast family as a vital design classic from the Danish Modern movement and a signature design from Sibast Furniture. The chair’s characteristic Y-shaped legs, floating seat and moulded backrest demand high-quality craftsmanship in order to achieve the unique expression. The bold and complex design of the iconic chair was perfected by Helge Sibast in the workshop and has an inherent beauty that transcends time and place. A true design classic to treasure and pass on to future generations. Sibast No 8 exemplifies unrivalled artisanal quality and is crafted using wood from FSC®- certified forests and other controlled sources. 70th ANNIVERSARY This year we celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the Sibast Classic Collection – The dining chairs Sibast No 7-8-9 Surrounded by wood of the finest quality, Helge Sibast felt at home in the workshop and had a natural urge to explore the art of furniture making. The skills and the passion were passed on to him from his father, who founded the family company in 1908. Ever since, excellent quality and craftsmanship have been the guiding principles of Sibast Furniture. The iconic pieces created by Helge Sibast during the 1950s and 60s encapsulate the power and beauty of the Danish Modern movement. He embraced the craftsmanship and classic virtues, leaving behind a remarkable Danish design heritage of timeless pieces. To be renewed and carried on by future generations of the Sibast family.
