J-Series 110 Dining Chair is HAY's reproduction of Poul M. Volther's J110 — a design that achieves a rare combination of lounge chair comfort and dining chair functionality in a single, resolved form. Volther's J110 is distinguished by long rods at the back and curved armrests that create an inviting, generous expression appropriate to extended dining use, while the overall proportions maintain the spatial economy required of a practical dining chair that can be used comfortably around a standard table.
HAY's reproduction is crafted in solid oak or beech in a variety of oiled, natural, or coloured finishes, maintaining the natural wood character that gives the J110 its warmth and material authenticity. The curved armrests are a defining formal element — they provide genuine elbow and arm support during extended seated use while contributing to the chair's welcoming, open expression. The combination of strong aesthetics and practical comfort reflects Volther's broader approach to furniture design as a discipline in which function and formal quality are inseparable.
The J-Series 110 is well suited to residential dining rooms and kitchen settings where a solid wood dining chair of considerable comfort and Danish Modern design heritage is the brief. Its combination of dining chair proportions and lounge chair comfort levels makes it particularly appropriate for households where dining chairs are used for extended periods of conversation and relaxed eating, and its solid wood construction and craft quality make it a meaningful specification for design-conscious residential and hospitality interiors.
