We now offer the Skipper Papa Bear Chair in different colors of Hallingdal fabric, which is a durable and flexible wool type, and with soap-treated oak. We also have the accompanying stools for sale. There is a global shortage of materials, which is why there is a delivery time of 8-10 weeks, but we offer them brand new from the manufacturer and not used.

The Skipper Papa Bear chair consists of soft lines and rounded edges and is upholstered, which results in great comfort and lumbar support. The back has vertical divisions and the seat is a loose cushion.

Since 1955, Skipper Furniture has been manufacturing chairs, sofas and stools. The Svend Skipper Papa Bear Chair is one of their most famous designs. It is an armchair of Danish design and high quality materials that is a cheaper alternative than Hans J. Wegner's Papa Bear Chair manufactured by Fritz Hansen.

In the same style as when the former presidents of the United States, John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, sat on Hans J. Wegner's The Chair in the 1960s, the former American president, Barack Obama, has just had the pleasure of sitting on a Skipper Papa Bear chair in June 2022. Obama visited Denmark to talk about the climate agenda, and he was seen sitting in a gray Skipper Papa Bear chair, which you now have the opportunity to order from us.
