J166 Jørna Chair - Black
Smoked oak turns Volther's affectionate armchair moody — dark grain, black leather, nothing to prove.
The J166 Jørna, named for Poul Volther's wife and drawn with room for her long knitting needles, comes here from FDB Møbler in smoked, oiled oak with black Denver semi-aniline leather — the darkest, most clubbable colorway in the series.

Common Questions
How is smoked oak different from painted black?
Smoking darkens the oak while keeping the grain visible and tactile under the oiled finish — a deep brown-black with life in it, where paint gives a uniform surface.
Is the Jørna big enough to lounge in?
Yes for reading and handwork — Volther designed it around his wife's knitting sessions — though at 30.1 inches wide it stays a compact armchair, not a lounge chair.
