This classic easy chair was designed in the 1950s, during the most active period of what we know today as mid-century Swedish furniture design. This chair is designed in the typical Scandinavian modern style with a clean and functional look complemented by stylish elements.

The chair’s simple and functional design, starting from the wooden frame’s symmetric lines to the visible joints and screws, is highly representative of the principles of Scandinavian mid-century design. The gently spread out legs are connected by stretchers to assure stability and comfort. The wooden frame appears to be firmly holding, grasping the back- and seat rest, which is even more apparent thanks to the soft, dark sheepskin upholstery. The sheepskin further highlights the round edges of the seat- and back rest, which contrasts nicely with the straight lines of the frame. The design is reminiscent of Alf Svensson’s TeVe chair, which became a Swedish classic for the same characteristics it shares with this chair. The gently bent back, the carefully constructed wooden structure, and the luxurious upholstery on the seat and backrest make both models true Swedish classics.

Based on the design, this model’s main objective was functionality. At the same time, as it can be expected from mid-century Scandinavian design pieces, the aesthetic dimension does not fall behind thanks to the dark sheepskin upholstery and masterfully crafted structure.
