We ship worldwide and all items are insured when shipping.

Armchair crafted in stained birch with its original upholstery, made by an unknown maker in Sweden in the 1930—40s. The chair takes a distinctly functionalist form, with a low, angular seat carried on black lacquered sledge runners that sweep up in a wide arch, while the broad, flat armrests curve in a graceful semicircle from the back down to the base. The slightly reclined backrest and seat are upholstered in the original fabric, woven with a small geometric pattern in muted tones of green, blue, terracotta and cream, which pairs beautifully with the warm, dark tone of the stained birch. The open, sculptural frame gives the chair a light, airy character while keeping the clean, geometric lines typical of Swedish modernism of the period. Very good vintage condition with light wear to the wood and upholstery consistent with age and use. Measurements: height 70 cm, seat height 42 cm, width 58 cm.
