The Nun Plain Lounge Chair is a study in understated comfort. Designed by Jens Juul Eilersen, it carries the same inviting proportions and exceptional craftsmanship that have made Eilersen sofas renowned worldwide. With its clean, architectural silhouette and gently tailored upholstery, this lounge chair brings a relaxed elegance to living rooms, reading corners, bedrooms, and lounge spaces alike. Designed for everyday comfort, the design features supportive armrests and a generously proportioned seat that encourages long conversations and quiet moments alike. A down-top seat cushion pairs with a back cushion filled entirely with down and duck feathers, creating the soft, enveloping comfort that has become synonymous with Eilersen design.
The Nun Collection is available in both Plain and Tufted versions and can be upholstered in a wide selection of premium fabrics and leathers.To explore the full range of options, see below or contact us to order.

Designed by Jens Juul Eilersen, the Nun is a quietly confident lounge chair — generous in its seat depth, restrained in its silhouette. It is offered in a plain version and a tufted version, both identical in footprint, with the tufting adding a subtle tactile grid to the back cushion. Available in 200+ fabrics and leathers, built to order.
