Arnold Madsen
The Clam Chair was designed in 1944 in Copenhagen by Danish upholsterer Arnold Madsen. In 1945 Arnold founded the furniture company Madsen & Schubell together with cabinetmaker Henry Schubell in order to produce this unique chair that became known in Danish as the: ‘Muslingstol’ (Clam Chair), due to its unique shape. This new edition has been crafted using a blend of traditional joinery techniques and modern technology, resulting in an authentic product of the highest quality. Dagmar is proud to re-launch this icon of the Danish Modern movement in collaboration with the estate of Arnold Madsen.

Arnold Madsen, a Danish upholsterer with no formal design training, became an influential figure in Scandinavian furniture design in the 1940s. In 1944, Madsen envisioned what would become the iconic Clam Chair, initially shaping it by hand in plaster to capture its organic, curving form. His partnership with skilled cabinetmaker Henry Schubell in 1945 led to the founding of Madsen & Schubell, a collaboration that brought innovative, hand-crafted designs like the Clam Chair to life.
