No 59 chair, oiled oak - natural paper cord

The Sibast No 59 chair, designed by Helge Sibast in 1959, reflects the spirit of Danish modernism combined with the rustic simplicity inspired by the American Shaker style. With its handwoven paper cord seat and gently curved backrest, the dining chair offers comfort for extended dinners and relaxed gatherings alike. The blend of wood and paper cord ensures lasting beauty and elegance, making the No 59 chair a perfect fit for both modern and more traditional dining rooms, conference spaces or restaurants.

Helge Sibast

Danish furniture manufacturer Sibast was established in 1908, when Peder Olsen Sibast opened his small carpenter’s workshop in the Danish countryside. His son Helge Sibast was born the same year. Helge grew up with the workshop, and in the 1940s he and his siblings Ole and Emma took over the company. Besides a carpenter, Helge also proved to be a skillful designer, and his designs, such as the Sibast chairs No 7 and 8, made Sibast Furniture famous also outside of Denmark. In the 1950s Sibast collaborated successfully with the Danish furniture designer Arne Vodder, and in the 1960s Sibast chairs made their way even to the White House.
