The Munkegaard chair, also known as the Mosquito chair, is a strong, bold concept from the celebrated Danish designer and architect Arne Jacobsen. Introduced in 1955 at the Munkegaard School in Denmark, it is an archetypal Jacobsen design: controversial, elegant and edgy.
Easily stackable and perfectly suited to home or office, it complements any décor, adding distinction and eye-catching charm and making a statement about individuality and independence.
