Bejra Möbel was a Swedish manufacture operating in the first half of the 20th century in the Swedish town of Tibro, a well-known centre of the furniture industry in Sweden. Furniture from Bejra Möbel raised the level of design in Sweden and was often presented in the trade press. As this pair of armchairs show, their models were distinguished by excellent production quality and modern design.

This pair of armchairs has a clear preoccupation with mid-century modern design characteristics, including gently rounded lines, an open profile, and quality materials. There is a certain gentleness to the design, which many would call the ‘feminine touch’. The designer’s fascination with classic English upholstered furniture and style is clearly visible in these armchairs, however, the English inspiration is combined with Swedish ideals. The enveloping backrests dictate the shape of these chairs, as they visually form most of the structure. Similarly to club chairs - that are favourites for modernist enthusiasts - these chairs’ arms constitute a single piece with the backs, resulting in a wide design profile. The line tracing is very clear, with outward curving armrests, defined seats and button tufting. In service of comfort are the soft, fully upholstered bodies in a textured velour fabric in a warm pink colour. The design is just as focused on the aesthetics as on employing exquisite techniques and materials. These chairs provide a high level of comfort thanks to their gently enveloping backs and seat cushions. The light coloured, tapered wooden feet are unmistakeable Scandinavian elements of the design, adding the traditional organicity of wood to the look. The back legs are splayed, thus providing plenty of structural support.

The most traditional use for club chair-like models is in the living room, but they work especially well in an open floor plan. The early mid-century modern aesthetic of this pair lends itself well to most styles as it is timelessly elegant and high-quality in terms of materials and execution.
