Contemporary office chair VL66

fabricleatherchrome steel base

VL66 was one of the first office chairs in the world to use a gas spring for height adjustment, which is the standard for all office chairs today. VL66 – in its current iconic design with Hallingdal fabric and leather reinforcement – was designed by Vermund Larsen in 1966. DID YOU KNOW?: Before Vermund Larsen invented height adjustment via a gas spring, the seat height was changed with a screw handle. There was no seat and backrest adjustment back in the day. In 1961, Vermund was the first in the world to use a gas spring to adjust the height of a chair. In fact, the VL66 was the whole reason that ergonomics and comfort found their way into Danish workplaces. This classic chair is the most elegant and detailed office chair you will find, with top-notch design, comfort, and functionality. The VL66 is built on a stable beech frame with upholstery in fabric or leather, and the chair has a polished aluminum swivel base and wheels with chrome steel shells. The VL66 is finished by hand at our facilities in Aalborg. The VL66 has a classic vintage look that exudes both quality and history. The backrest and seat provide fantastic, adjustable seating comfort, which means that you can sit for several hours without hurting your back. The ergonomic design of the VL66 shows that Vermund was far ahead of his time.
