Age is the best friend of Skagerak's much-loved Drachmann range: the premium wood ages beautifully, with the surface developing a distinctive silver patina, that is considered to be highly desirable in Skagerak's native Denmark. Sustainability is at the heart of everything Skagerak do, with the wood derived from FSC-certified sources, ensuring that the company put back into the environment what they take out. The chair is also available in a configuration which includes a seat cushion, and is complemented by a range of benches and tables.
Danish designer Bernt Santesson is painstaking, calm and friendly, his infectious optimism extends to his life ethos: he believes it is easier to treat people with courtesy than to not.
Life is his greatest source of inspiration.
