Originally dubbed the U-56, the Elizabeth Footstool by Ib Kofod Larsen is a classical and comfortable accent piece for use when reclining in the corresponding Elizabeth Chair, which takes its name from Queen Elizabeth II, who purchased the design during a visit to Copenhagen in 1962. The Elizabeth Lounge Chair is available separately.

Ib Kofod-Larsen is the epitome of Danish Modern. His furniture creations sit in the tension field between art and design. Although they have clear references to the mid-century period, they proffer a contemporary aesthetic that makes it difficult to decode whether they were designed then or now. Defined by a simplicity and straightforwardness that belies their complex craft and thoughtful details, Kofod-Larsen's elegant designs are rare examples of Danish furniture at its finest.
