J52B Chair - Black Green

Reportedly President Kennedy's favorite chair to relax in — Mogensen's 1952 Windsor, here in deep black-green.

The J52B from FDB Møbler is Børge Mogensen's lightened take on the 16th-century English Windsor chair: simple staves, generous comfort, dining chair and lounge chair in one. This version is beech painted Black Green (RAL 6012) with water-based paint.

Common Questions

Is the J52B a dining chair or a lounge chair?
Both — Mogensen designed it to serve at the table and stand alone as a relaxing chair, which is exactly the dual role that reportedly won Kennedy over.

What color is Black Green in daylight?
A green so dark it reads near-black across the room, revealing its forest depth up close — a subtler choice than true black.
