Audo Copenhagen Merkur dining chair, oak

Audo Copenhagen’s Merkur dining chair was originally designed for the Oslo Stock Exchange, one of Norway’s most famous buildings. A hint at this is in fact given already by the chair’s name which refers to Mercurius, the god of financial gain and commerce in Roman mythology. The design studio Skogstad & Wærnes wanted to create a chair that would honor the centuries-long history of the prestigious building, but also make an impact outside it. The Merkur chair’s soft lines, timeless design and elegant look of oak with its exposed wood grain patterns make the chair a perfect companion for home kitchens and offices, as well as restaurants, meeting rooms and lobbies.
