J48 - Chair Leather Black

Seventy years popular and counting — Volther's 1951 dining chair in clear oak with a black leather seat.

The J48 chair pairs a nature-lacquered solid oak frame with a seat upholstered in black Sierra leather. One of the most popular chairs FDB Møbler has ever ranged, its rounded, separate backrest — kin to Poul M. Volther's Corona chair — does the quiet work of keeping guests at the table.

Materials

Solid oak, nature lacquered; seat in black Sierra leather (SI1001M)

Designer

Poul M. Volther, 1951

Made by

FDB Møbler, Denmark's cooperative design studio since 1942

Common Questions

Why has the J48 stayed popular since 1951?
The separate rounded backrest meets the sitter at a better angle than fixed rails, and the honest oak construction survives decades — comfort plus durability rarely go out of style.

Does black leather suit the light oak frame?
Yes — the black seat against clear-lacquered oak is the J48's most classic contrast, tying easily to black tables, lamps, and frames elsewhere in the room.

Care Guide +

FDB Møbler furniture is crafted from FSC-certified wood, powder-coated steel, and OEKO-TEX textiles. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight. Dust with a soft cloth; clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For lacquered surfaces, avoid harsh chemicals. For oiled wood, re-oil periodically. For upholstery, vacuum regularly and address spills promptly. Lift furniture rather than dragging across floors.
