Know before you buy
The J39 Seat Pad is specifically engineered to fit the dimensions and geometry of the J39 Mogensen Chair. While it may physically fit on other seats of similar size, it is designed exclusively for this model.
Because the pad is crafted from triangular leather offcuts, each piece features a unique patchwork aesthetic. This means no two seat pads are identical, highlighting the natural variations in the leather.
The pad is designed to sit securely on the chair's seat without the need for permanent fasteners. The natural canvas underside provides enough grip to keep it stable during normal use.
To maintain the leather, wipe it occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or cleaners, as these can damage the natural finish of the cognac leather.
The canvas underside serves two purposes: it provides a durable, non-slip base for the pad and offers a breathable material that rests against the chair's woven seat.
