Mid-century modern is a style that bloomed in the mid-20th century, defined by sleek and functional furniture in natural materials. It remains one of the most appreciated interior styles, and the design pieces from this period are some of the most iconic in the world - uncluttered, uncomplicated furniture that is as functional and comfortable as it is timeless.
The construction of this stunning mid-century modern sheepskin easy chair features high-quality materials and the technical mastery of the era’s European cabinetmakers. The elegant, organically rounded lines of the design - especially of the wooden arms - create a striking silhouette. Through both its generous proportions and its luxurious upholstery, the chair provides great sitting comfort. The upholstery is made of soft sheepskin which covers the body of the chair, from the tall back to the deep, relaxing seat. The sculpted and delicate, yet sturdy, bare armrests balance the fullness of the chair’s body, while their shape accommodates the user. The desire to keep functionality and comfort at the core of the design is visible when looking at the gently rounded tall back, almost “hugging” the sitter. The short, tapered front legs are slightly longer than the back legs in order to tilt back the seat, offering a lounging feel.
The classic mid-century furniture design principles are all present in this model, as it is functional, well-crafted, and free of unnecessary ornamentation. In contrast to the streamlined form, the sheepskin upholstery provides great visual interest and transforms this armchair into a beautiful accent element in any space.
