Kristian Illum Wikkelsø

The Danish furniture designer Kristian Illum Wikkelsø (1919-1999) first completed a cabinetmaking apprenticeship and then studied at an arts and crafts school in Copenhagen. He then gained experience in the architecture office of Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen before opening his own workshop in 1954. For the manufacturer Niels Eilersen he designed several lounge chairs, and he also created a well-known series of rocking chairs with a biomorphic silhouette in the late 1950s. Wikkelsø preferred to work with teak and rosewood and developed organically shaped, sculptural seating that combined comfort and ergonomics with a clear Danish design language. Besides Niels Eilersen, his clients also included Farstrup Stolefabrik and other Danish manufacturers.
