Poul M. Volther
Poul Volther was a Danish designer and educator (at Denmark’s Design School) who was responsible for a number of notable mid-century furniture designs, including chairs, armchairs and sofas.
Trained as a cabinet maker and furniture designer at The Arts and Crafts School in Copenhagen, he was a key proponent of functionalism and specifically focused on applying craft techniques to fine quality materials. He was employed as a designer at FDB in 1949 and later went on to become the head of design.
The FDB furniture department played a pivotal role in revolutionising the industry in Denmark, it was founded in 1933 and in 1942 Børge Mogensen was installed as design director. His pioneering approach was distinguished by a desire to create simple, elegant and practical design intended for mass consumption.

The J48 stands out thanks to the three horizontal lines that compose the backrest. These bars guarantee optimal comfort and support. In order to offer an ever more pleasant chair, the seat can be enhanced with a fabric or leather cushion.
Aesthetic and comfortable, the J48 will fit into all types of interiors.
