Swedish Cabinetmaker Upholstered Armchair, Sweden 1940s (sold)

$0.00

This armchair is an elegant and comfortable evidence of the mastery and artistry of the Swedish cabinetmakers who defined mid-20th century modern seating. This model is of the highest quality, both in terms of materials and craftsmanship.

Scandinavian furniture from the mid-20th century revolutionized the history of what we consider modern design today. Scandinavian chairs in particular have become unrivalled references in it. Cabinetmaker chairs may seem similar at first sight, however each model’s individuality becomes evident upon closer inspection. In this armchair’s case, its welcoming, elegant shapes and forms stand out immediately. Its inventiveness bears witness to the synthesis that this chair has achieved between form and function, in which aesthetics and utility come together in a purely Scandinavian manner. The fully upholstered wooden frame rests on wooden legs that provide contrast to the light coloured mohair fabric. Without any excess decoration, the focus is on the round, flowing lines of the body and its upholstery. The exceptionally soft mohair fabric highlights the frame’s rounded edges, especially its voluminous arm- and backrest.

From the frame to the upholstery, this armchair guarantees utmost quality and longevity. This armchair is the perfect illustrations of how the pairing of Scandinavian design, the work of a true cabinetmaker, and luxurious upholstery create exceptional pieces.
