In an era marked by unprecedented cultural dynamism and bold artistic expression, the Art Deco movement emerged as a testament to modernity and sophistication. This period witnessed the creation of exquisite furniture pieces that epitomised the union of form and function, with this pair of armchairs standing out as a prime example.

These armchairs combine the disciplined geometry associated with early modernist seating with the material richness that remained central to Art Deco interiors. The exposed wooden frames feature a continuous linear structure around the chairs, bending outward into broad armrests before descending directly into the sled-style bases. That uninterrupted curve gives the silhouette a strong architectural quality while also softening the severity of the angular construction. The frames are executed in richly toned wood with pronounced grain patterns that become especially visible across the wide arm supports. In contrast, the seats and backrests are upholstered in black hide, introducing a heavily textured surface that changes subtly under light. The material gives the chairs a tactile depth, setting them apart from pieces with smoother upholstery. Thus, this quality creates a contrast between the polished wood and the textured, organic finish of the hide. The proportions emphasize horizontality and give the chairs a grounded presence within a room. Despite the bold construction, the open sides and visible negative space beneath the seats prevent the pieces from overwhelming a space.

The chairs carry a sculptural clarity that feels closely tied to the more architectural side of European Art Deco design. Their silhouettes rely less on ornament and more on the interaction between line, proportion, and material contrast, allowing the pieces to feel both restrained and visually commanding at the same time.

Art Deco was an era-defining movement in furniture design. During its heyday, it represented luxury, glamour, exuberance and faith in social and technological progress. European furniture designers’ artistic approach was anchored by refinement, expressed through graceful forms and traditional methods. The mix of boldness and richness became central to European Art Deco interiors, where furniture was expected to contribute atmosphere as much as function.

These chairs illustrate the bold aesthetic of the first half of the 20th century. Art Deco designers and cabinetmakers coupled geometry and craftsmanship to create elegantly impressive pieces like this pair. The construction of this stunning pair features high-quality materials, from the wooden frame to the soft upholstery. The frames are defined by the sweeping and sleek arms that curve outward and downward in a flowing motion. Their striking appearance is the result of the brilliant pairing of materials; the solid wood structures’ polished lines stand out against the textural, organic sheepskin while also accentuating the individuality of the upholstery. The long-haired fabric gives the chairs an almost organic appearance while emphasizing comfort and warmth.

As a pair, these armchairs stand as striking examples of European craftsmanship. The thoughtful design, from the choice of materials to the thoughtful details, ensures that these chairs are as much a work of art as they are functional seating, enhancing the comfort and aesthetic value of any space. As relics of a pivotal time in design history, they continue to inspire and captivate, embodying the enduring appeal of modernist and Art Deco principles.

Art Deco seating from the first half of the 20th century moved toward softer and more streamlined forms, rather than relying on heavy ornament. Designers focused on curved silhouettes and volume, creating furniture that fulfilled functional roles. Low armchairs became especially popular in domestic interiors, where comfort and visual softness were balanced with the elegance of the period.

This pair of armchairs embodies that transition through rounded, enveloping bodies and restrained detailing. The broad curved armrests flow directly into the lower structures, creating unified silhouettes with little interruption between elements. Unlike more rigid geometric seating, the forms feel continuous yet strong, with the upholstery enveloping the frames to emphasize the smoothness of the contours. The sand-coloured fabric reinforces the shape, giving the chairs a warm and understated presence while allowing light to move gently across the curved surfaces. The backrests are slightly reclined and contribute to a relaxed posture, while the generously proportioned seats add to the sense of comfort. Small wooden feet remain mostly concealed beneath the bodies, subtly lifting the chairs from the floor without distracting from their compact volumes.

What makes this pair particularly appealing is the combination of visual weight and softness. The chairs feel grounded without looking rigid. They function less as architectural objects and more as carefully shaped upholstered forms, designed with attention to comfort that suits a range of interior styles.

Italian Modern furniture is defined by unique design, perfect execution, and exclusivity. Modernist Italian designers’ language was always coherent with current times and congenial to the wisdom of furniture manufacturing, representing an outpost of strong innovation in the panorama of Italian craftsmanship.

This pair is focused on elegant and measured proportions, balanced compositions, and refined décor elements including the exclusive materials. The versatile shapes, from the rounded edges on the top to the square, unattached armrests and tapered legs make these chairs stand out. The V-shaped high backs are visually defining thanks to their sheer size and unusual shape. The enveloping backs become narrower towards the seat, like elegant, slim necks, with the sides flowing into the armrests, creating a structured, but still flowing angle and impression. The beautiful, richly textured bouclé fabric brings out the versatility of the shapes even further, and contrasts the solid wood legs as well. The backs are decorated with seven, yellow cross stitches arranged symmetrically, which further adds to the modern edge.

The 1960s’ Italy was especially passionate about furniture and product design, an area where the country remained faithful to a figurative repertoire of substantial classicism, while not disdaining impulses of authentic modernity. Similar designs are commonly attributed to Paolo Buffa, who - like many of his contemporaries - was extremely active in the Milanese design scene that was just as vibrant as these chairs. In an atmosphere committed to the reinterpretation of the Lombard classicism and Milanese architecture, exceptional pieces were created as this pair shows.

These side chairs originate from Europe in the 1960s, a period defined by a renewed appreciation for natural materials, functional craftsmanship, and honest construction. Mid-century European design moved away from excess ornamentation in favour of clarity, comfort, and durability. Oak furniture from this era reflects a balance between modernist restraint and timeless handcraft, highlighting structure and material.

This pair is crafted from solid wood, featuring softly rounded frames with gently curved arms and ladder-style backrests that emphasize both strength and comfort, while also showcasing gently carved contours. The warm tone of the wood highlights the natural grain, adding visual depth and character to the clean, architectural structure. The proportions are generous, offering an embracing seat. The slightly splayed legs and cross-stretchers provide stability. Moreover, the seats are upholstered in rich sheepskin, introducing a contrasting texture that softens the overall design and enhances comfort. The use of this material aligns the chairs with the decade’s interest in warmth, tactility, and elegance. The organic surface of the hide adds subtle textural and visual variation, making the pair feel like a focal point of any space. Together, the sturdy oak construction and plush upholstery create a pleasing dialogue between structure and softness.

With their combination of durable and inviting materials, these side chairs embody the relaxed refinement of European mid-century design. They function effortlessly as statement pieces while remaining practical for everyday use. Timeless in form and character, the pair offers an expression of 1960s craftsmanship that fits effortlessly into both modern and classic interiors.

In 1930s Scandinavia, Art Deco took on a quieter, more grounded character in comparison to its popular French or American counterparts. While the movement is often associated with glamour and sharp geometry, Scandinavian interpretations leaned toward softer forms, solid craftsmanship, and comfort suited to everyday life, while maintaining the magnetic elegance of the movement. This process resulted in furniture that feels confident and modern without being flashy.

These armchairs reflect that balance, combining the streamlined look of the period with a clear concern for warmth, proportion, and functionality. The design of this pair is defined by generous, rounded volumes and a grounded stance that emanates comfort. The wide, curved armrests flow seamlessly alongside the bodies of the chairs, creating an enveloping form that feels protective and inviting. The upholstery enhances this effect, adding visual softness and tactile depth while emphasizing the sculptural silhouette. The backs are gently angled, offering proper support while maintaining a sleek profile that does not overwhelm a space. Beneath the body, short wooden feet subtly lift the chairs and ensure stability. The proportions are carefully judged so the chairs feel substantial without appearing heavy. The design avoids excess ornament, allowing shape, volume, and material to do the work.

This pair offers comfort while retaining a distinctive Art Deco that sets apart furniture from this era. Their sculptural quality makes them visually engaging, while also being able to blend easily with both vintage and contemporary interiors. These armchairs are a strong example of how Norwegian Art Deco furniture combines function, form, and lasting appeal in a way that still feels relevant today.

“Danish Modern” is a recognized term around the world, standing for the characteristic style of Danish design created during the 20th century. As these lounge chairs show, furniture created in this period are characterized by clarity in design, and extremely high-quality craftsmanship and choice of materials.

This pair of lounge chairs exudes quality and personality from all angles. Their classic shape is formed by the generous seat and embracing back. The large, curved backrests feature tufted buttons and follow the curve of the voluptuous seats, creating an inviting and open look which is a signature characteristic of Danish Modernism. The tufting stitches are festooned with thirteen, symmetrically arranged buttons on each chair, that sink into the soft upholstery. The tapered, lacquered wood legs prevent the chairs from looking heavy by slightly lifting them off the ground, while their warm brown colour nicely contrasts the soft, light colour of the bodies. The back legs are splayed to provide structural support to the chairs.

Thanks to the sheepskin, the chairs give a natural, textured look, making them ideal to blend a stroke of modernity to any space, with a nod to organic, simple artistry. Sheepskin is the ultimate material for comfort, warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The artisanal production quality is evident throughout this pair and takes the Danish idea of “furniture that last for generations” seriously.

About the Designer:

The practical and comfortable designs of Danish cabinetmakers defined mid-20th century modern seating. The Danish Cabinetmakers focused on minimalist design executed by expertly skilled craftsmen.

Works from the Danish Cabinet-Makers' Guild is a concept of its own in collectible design. The Cabinet-Makers' Guild began annual exhibitions in 1927 in Copenhagen. The group formed an exhibit showing each year in October the quality furniture made to drawings by gifted architects. The exhibition took place each year, without interruption, for forty years. A number of successful Danish Design collaborations were formed during this time between cabinetmakers and architects.

Danish Modernism has influenced Scandinavian furniture to a great degree, defined by minimalism, simplicity, and functionality. The muted colours and gentle designs make Danish mid-century furniture an ideal addition to contemporary living spaces. Additionally, master cabinetmakers were highly aware of body proportions, prioritizing comfort just as much as the visual qualities.

The works of master cabinetmakers – such as this chair – are of the highest quality, both in terms of materials and craftsmanship. Cabinetmakers take the art of working with wood one step further, and focus on the finer details of what can be created with the material. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that numerous master cabinetmakers are part of the renowned Danish Culture Canon (Danish: Kulturkanonen). The canon contains no more than 108 works of cultural excellence, based on works with a useful function and that are still recognizable today. This small armchair is the perfect illustration of Danish design, and the work of a true cabinetmaker. ~H.

The “Laila” model by the Finnish designer Ilmari Lappalainen originates from 1948, with the earliest original drawings kept in the Lahti City Museum in their Lappalainen Collection.

This pair of “nr. 238” armchairs are from the Finnish designer’s most famous series called “Laila”. The design became sought after by collectors even in its production time, which is quite rare in the case of Nordic mid-century modern furniture. Lappalainen was a renowned designer, famous for his designs’ comfort. Some of his designs even received medical approval because they had such a good seating that it prevented back problems. These armchairs have a cosy modern style, modelled on the Swedish and Danish furniture of the time, including the round edges and generous seat cushion and back with tufted buttons. The bodies have the classic Nordic look, which explains the contemporary popularity of these armchairs both among the public and museums. The modern aesthetic is further elevated by the textured, premium upholstery that complements the shape and the wooden, tapered legs as well. Sheepskin is the ultimate material for comfort, warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It elevates the sheer size and shape of the chair, especially its back.

Wood is omnipresent in the Nordics, and Finnish woodworking is world-famous for its traditions. These chairs were created for Asko, the Finnish furniture manufacturing company founded in 1918 by Aukusti Asko Avonius, known for the production of high-quality furniture. By 1930 the company had developed into the largest furniture chain in Finland and the largest supplier of furniture in the Scandinavian countries. After the war, the damage it caused and the new homes of Karelian migrants concentrated production on essential furniture, which the Finnish Ministry of Public Affairs ordered to sell at an affordable price. Favourites of this time included Ilmari Lappalainen’s Laila series.

By the end of the school of interior design, he was already working as an intern in Asko and after graduating he got a permanent design position at the company. Lappalainen worked as a teacher and as an interior designer for Asko's department stores, public spaces and hotels.

Lappalainen's most popular products / series are the Laila sofa set, the Seija rocking chair, the lazy castle Rex and the Pulkka armchair. Interestingly, the chairs from the Columna series were sold as health chairs for a long time, because they had such a good ergonomic design, that it prevented back problems. The chairs eventually received medical approval as well. ~H.

The ‘Skrindan’ armchair model was designed in 1963 by iconic Swedish designer Kerstin Hörlin-Homquist. Hörlin-Holmquist had a unique and humanistic design vision, and thanks to her uncompromising attitude, she created some of the most famous Swedish models of the era.

The unique stained beech frames are a visual delight, with subtle decorative elements that distinguish this pair from other models of the era. Without worrying about short-lived trends and what other people thought, Hörlin-Holmquist created her models with such precision and creativity that still makes them collectible pieces. Thanks to her unique vision, these chairs have unmistakable backs and sides comprised of symmetrically arranged spindles. As the backs and armrests sit relatively low, the chairs have an open look. The sheepskin upholstery of the back and seat cushions elevate the visual comfort.

OPE Möbler, Jönköping produced the furniture designs of some of Scandinavia’s most renowned designers, such as Ib Kofod-Larsen, Ingemar Thillmark, and of course, Kerstin Hörlin-Holmquist. These ‘Skrindan’ armchairs are exemplary of Swedish mid-century quality and design to its core, uniting functionality with an understated, yet interesting and elegant design.

About the Designer:

Kerstin Hörlin-Holmquist was born on May 30, 1925 in Arvika, Sweden. She was a Swedish modernist architect and designer. Hörlin-Holmquist graduated from Stockholm’s Konstfack in 1952, and before that she studied and worked in England.

She often worked with her husband Erik Holmquist, and together they modelled and created the pieces together. A key aspect for the couple was always to test their designs in their own home before completing a project.

"I think both furniture and textiles, wherever they end up, must be kind, gentle and courteous, but without losing their character. They should have human qualities, not be pompous and only stand alone, but be able to adapt to the environment they end up in..."

Hörlin-Holmquist worked and studied in England from 1946-1947 immediately after the war, where she also studied art history and became fascinated with the classic English upholstered furniture and style. Something that without a doubt inspired her own creations later in life while she still developed her own expression. She returned to Sweden where she attended Konstfack from 1948 and graduated from the school in 1952. She started working with Nordiska Kompaniet shortly after her graduation and became a lead designer. Her timeless and iconic ‘Paradiset Collection’ was created during her employment with Nordiska Kompaniet in 1956-1957 and holds a soft simplicity and a uniqueness in its appearance - light, clean lines and yet gracious with an air of romance.

Today, her designs are highly treasured collectibles. She is primarily remembered, for her ability to create designs for the modern home in the 1950s without worrying about short-lived trends and what other people thought - to stay true to her own unique and humanistic design vision.

During its heyday, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance and faith in social and technological progress. The movement peaked in popularity around the 1930s, spreading across Europe and the United States up to the start of World War II. Art Deco designs featured rare, expensive, innovative materials and exquisite craftsmanship.

In line with the Art Deco movement during which they were designed and manufactured, these chairs illustrate the bold, rich and luxurious aesthetic of the era. Before giving way to mid-century modernism and its focus on function over form, Art Deco pieces coupled geometry and craftsmanship to arrive as elegantly impressive additions to their interiors. The highlight of this pair of armchairs is the wide curved shape of the rounded arm rests, veneered with walnut wood, which dictate the chairs’ silhouette while ensuring both visual appeal and durability. In true Art Deco fashion, well-thought-out details offer glamorous touches to the chairs, as can be seen from the subtle addition of decorative metal studs at the juncture of the front legs and armrests. Living up to their rich history, the chairs feature thick back and seat cushions, upholstered in a soft muted rose-coloured mohair fabric, increasing comfort even further. The stout wooden legs balance out the voluptuous body, while flowing effortlessly as a continuation of the armrests.

Created during an age of innovation - from materials, to shapes and techniques - these chairs showcase that the European furniture designers’ artistic approach was anchored in the Art Deco movement. Through their graceful rounded form and quality craftsmanship, this pair of armchairs makes for the perfect stylish touch of warmth and charm.
