Erik Jorgensen Ox Chair

Jorgenson_ox Another design classic, this time the rather unusual-looking Ox Chair, produced by Erik Jorgensen.

This chair actually dates back to 1960, designed by Hans J. Wegner and apparently inspired by the work of Picasso - and indeed the humble ox. It was all too futuristic for the tastes of the day, going out of production in 1962 and not returning until 1985.

You can still get one of the leather and stainless steel chairs today, but at a price. Expect to pay between £5,900 - £6,500, depending on the specification.
