Generally, Czech mid-century modern designs tend to be more sober than their French, German, American, and even Scandinavian counterparts. However, works by Pavel Novak are an exception - as evidenced by chair. The Czech designer’s repertoire is finally starting to surface, and as this chair shows, we are lucky to witness it.

Novak often worked with a gouge, that originally never had any other vocation than to furnish his farm. This piece is made of hand gouged oak, which is in itself a time-consuming and rare woodcarving technique. While most woodworkers offer help with fixing gouges in wood, Novak used the technique to create this rustic looking body that can be considered to be a functional sculpture. Thanks to the unique, hand-carved texture, the lounge chair is one of a kind, with a unique pattern. The leather seat is suspended between the three legs, one of which is elongated to serve as a backrest. The joinery technique is seamless and shows the outstanding craftsmanship and vision of Novak. The leather straps are inset into the legs in a rough, yet sophisticated way.

In fact, rough yet sophisticated are the adjectives that best define the overall aesthetic of this chair, reflected in the pairing of the materials as well. The patinated leather’s smooth surface contrasts beautifully with the gouged, coarse look of the oak. With its straightforward design, this oiece is a seminal work of Pavel Novak.

This lounge chair is an elegant evidence of the mastery and artistry of the European cabinetmakers who defined modern seating. This chair is of the highest quality, both in terms of visual appeal, materials, and craftsmanship. Mid-century modern is notable for its blending of classic looks with a more updated feel.

The design language of this piece is entirely dedicated to the organic-modern style of the mid-20th century. Much like in Scandinavia, the mid-century era on continental Europe gave form to furniture pieces defined by quality, functionality, and reliability. The lovely shell body has effortlessly flowing lines with an open profile. The arms curve outwards highlighting the shape. It is evident from every single angle that the body was created with the sitter in mind, offering great ergonomic design. This model is built in a permanently reclined position, which is a key feature; the slightly reclined backrest and raised seat provide ultimate comfort both for the eyes and the body. The curved seat gives this model a sculptural and striking appearance. The splayed legs made of brass are characteristic of the time, adding a modern touch to the model. The legs are quite simple, which is a great design choice that contrasts with the colour and soft texture of the upholstery, while also letting it stand out. This lounge chair can seamlessly integrate into a variety of design schemes, enhancing the overall aesthetic and imbuing the space with a touch of timeless European elegance.

From every single angle, this lounge chair offers a stunning silhouette and visual depth. European designers believed that design could certainly be used to improve people's lives.

This lounge chair by Swedish designer, Gösta Jonsson, exudes quality and personality from all angles, and is the designer’s most famous model. The basic Swedish design principles are all present and upholstered in soft and stylish sheepskin.

With organic forms and harmonious proportions, this model is an excellent example of great Swedish design from the era. Designed in the early phase of what we know today as mid-century modern, this lounge chair has a classic shape, paired with a modern edge. The generous seat and back are welcoming, with the latter curving in such an angle that the sitter is “hugged”. The large, curved backrest features tufted buttons and follows the curve of the equally generous seat, creating a harmonious look. The backside of this chair is quite striking, as it is created from a single piece stemming from the base. The sheepskin used for the upholstery 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, beautifully. At the same time, the wood also remains in the focus, as it is the most important material in Swedish mid-century design. The solid, stained wood legs are tapered to lighten the look, but are thick enough at the top to provide adequate joinery strength.

The artisanal production quality shows throughout this chair and takes the Swedish idea of furniture that last for generations seriously. The harmony of craftsmanship, the materials and the design makes this lounge chair ideal for any interior and style.

In Sweden, “svensk design” in particular operates as a set of relations linking objects, spaces, people to the cultural ideologies that motivate the persistence of a social democratically infused “way of life.” Thanks to this sentiment, the cabinetmaker of this chair put an emphasis on soft elegance and functionality, making it timeless in every sense of the word.

The Swedish design movement has exercised a wide influence on modern architecture and interior furnishings internationally since the early twentieth century. As this beautiful high-back lounge chair shows, early mid-century modern designers and cabinetmakers not only prioritised outstanding craftsmanship, but also an aesthetic quality that honours the materials and their users alike. Swedish proponents of modern design ideals were able to cultivate their principles in a climate of relative calm with the long-term persistence of crafts traditions being especially formative. This craftsmanship is apparent in this lounge chair with a sinuous body that is as artistic as it is functional. The main principles of Swedish Modernism centre around minimalism, simplicity, and functionalism. This chair achieves to follow these principles while offering plenty of visually arresting qualities, including the high, curved back and exposed, sculptural arms that claw into the upholstery. The rich texture of the bouclé fabric accentuates the expressive shape of the frame that praises the maker’s sense of proportions. The short wood legs don’t take away from the robust, cosy appearance, instead they keep the design grounded and perfectly stable while also providing contrast with the beautiful colour. The expert Swedish craftsmanship is clearly visible throughout this piece, with impeccable woodworking and construction.

This beautiful, inviting lounge chair lives up to its Swedish heritage both in terms of visual and material quality. While its aesthetic is clean and functional, it has an eye-catching look with luxurious upholstery and cross stitches that make it an ideal accent piece as well.

Furthermore, the blue mohair fabric adds a rich and luxurious look and feel, with the deep, warm hue of the upholstery creating a sense of opulence, making it an ideal choice for an eye-catching interior.

The Art Deco movement, which emerged in the early 20th century, is known for its bold geometric shapes, luxurious materials, and an emphasis on streamlined forms. Art Deco came as a reaction against the flowing organic lines of Art Nouveau, thus opting for symmetry, order, and elegance. Influenced by modernity and industrialisation, furniture from this design era often features rich fabrics, polished finishes, and an overall sense of opulence, designed to elevate everyday spaces.

This armchair reflects the defining characteristics of Art Deco with its sleek geometric form. The curving armrests, which showcase the skilfully shaped and polished wooden overlays, flow gracefully into the generous backrest and seat, emphasizing their fluidity. The sumptuous burnt orange mohair upholstery brings a deep, velvety texture that enhances the chair’s inviting character while adding a dramatic touch of colour to any interior. The mohair also enhances the tactile appeal, its surface catching light and representing one of the only decorations of the pair, while also ensuring a deep sense of comfort. In true Art Deco fashion, well-thought-out details offer glamorous touches to the chair, as can be seen from the carved details on the front legs and armrests.

This armchair illustrates the perfect marriage of geometry and function combined with expert craftsmanship. Perfectly suited for a vintage or contemporary interior, the model combines artistry and comfort, and is sure to become the focal point of any space.

While they play a prominent role in both architecture and pop culture, rocking chairs solidified their place in Scandinavian design history as well. As this Swedish model proves, functionality can manifest in many forms, but it is always accompanied by both great material and aesthetic quality in Swedish design.

Taking influence from the golden age of modernism in Sweden and the 1930s’ cabin furniture, this rocking chair was made in the famous “sportstugemöbel” style, originally intended for Swedish summer houses. Solid pine was the preferred material in this specific style and some of the most prominent Swedish designers created models for these summer residencies, including Axel Einar Hjorth and Carl Malmsten. Functionality and longevity were the guiding principles for the style, and accordingly, for this rocking chair as well. The pine structure is very polished and firm, assembled with an expert joinery technique. The seat is ergonomically carved, and the edges are gently rounded for maximum comfort.

Åby furniture factory was located in Tjureda parish, in Sweden’s Växjö municipality. The company primarily manufactured pine furniture, including the “SMI 110” chair that has the same backseat as this rocking chair model.

Rare “Pele” lounge chair by Finnish designer Esko Pajamies, manufactured by the Finnish furniture company, Lahden Lepokalusto Oy in the 1970s.

This “Pele” lounge chair is made from solid oak. The wooden frame has a beautiful matte finish, while the cushions are upholstered in a premium bouclé fabric.

The wooden frame provides a firm base with rounded edges. The elongated seat and the back legs of the armchair form one elongated piece of wood, which is the Pele’s most unique element. The ergonomic design with the bent backrest and wide armrests makes this chair an exceptionally comfortable piece. Therefore, it is no surprise that this line of recliners first gained popularity as a TV chair for homes. Later it became a popular choice for fireplace rooms as well as public spaces, like several of Pajamies’s designs.

Condition:

In very good vintage condition. The wood only has minor wear, some discolouration and small stains. Recently reupholstered in a premium bouclé fabric.

About the designer:

Esko Lauri Alvari Pajamies (1931-1990) was a Finnish designer, primarily known for his upholstered furniture designs for both private and public spaces.

Pajamies graduated as an interior architect in 1954 and established his own design studio in 1961. Pajamies designed his first series of furniture for Lepokalusto in 1965, and their fruitful collaboration lasted well into the 1970s. Pajamies designed for a handful of other manufacturers and his designs proved to be lucrative throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Interestingly, Esko Pajamies was the first to design a sofa (Bonanza for Asko 1965) that had an exposed wooden frame. The sofa was named after the 1960s television series and had extra wide armrests to accommodate glasses and plates.

His “Polar 1001” and “1003” chairs could be found on luxury liners sailing the Black Sea, while some of his other designs furnished the Helsinki-Vantaa Airport's passenger terminal in 1975. The versatile designer also played trumpet in the jazz band Jaakko Salo Modern Band. He played with many famous singers in the 1960s.

Pajamies was awarded the State Art Prize in 1979 and is still known as one of the leading interior architects of Finland. ~H.

Art Deco furniture reflects a moment when design shifted toward confidence, comfort, and modern living. Emerging in the interwar period, the design movement embraced strong silhouettes, rich materials, and a sense of quiet luxury that felt both progressive and grounded. Club chairs became a key expression of this approach, designed not only to look substantial but to invite use. This chair fits squarely within that tradition, balancing architectural clarity with a deeply comfortable presence.

This club chair is defined by its generous, rounded silhouette, with thickly upholstered arms that curve forward and frame the seat in a protective, almost enveloping way. The deep seat and softly padded backrest create a sense of weight and comfort, while the proportions remain carefully controlled so the form never feels heavy. Upholstered in an earthy-toned brown fabric, the surface adds depth and softness to the overall appearance, reinforcing the chair’s tactile appeal. Subtle shaping at the arms and back gives the piece a sense of flow, while the low stance and solid proportions keep it visually anchored. The short, carved wooden feet give the chair a grounded presence, ensuring sturdiness. Together, these elements create a piece that feels both intimate and confident, designed as much for long, relaxed use as for aesthetic impact.

This club chair captures the essence of Art Deco comfort, where refinement and functionality coexist. Its timeless shape and inviting feel make it as relevant today as it was when first made. A strong example of early 20th century seating, it speaks to a period when furniture was designed to be lived with and be passed down through generations.

This armchair reflects the quiet shift in European furniture design during the 1930s, when comfort and everyday use began to matter as much as appearance. Designers of the period moved away from heavy ornament and toward simpler forms that still felt considered and well-made. Seating became softer and more approachable, while proportions were carefully balanced to suit modern interiors. This chair sits comfortably within that moment, combining restraint, warmth, and a clear focus on usability.

The chair is defined by its clear, well-proportioned silhouette and upholstered body. The design expertly combines a geometric impression and high quality materials to create a balance that defines the overall form. The armrests frame the seat, creating a grounded and sturdy presence. Upholstered in a striped fabric, the pattern introduces rhythm and subtle contour without overpowering the shape. The vertical stripes emphasize the chair’s height and give structure to its soft silhouette, while the fabric’s texture adds depth and tactility. Beneath the upholstery, the wooden legs provide a quiet counterpoint, their simple tapered form anchoring the piece. The balance between softness and structure shows the mark of a skilled cabinetmaker. Every element works together to create a chair that feels inviting, practical, and carefully considered.

This armchair is a strong example of how 1930s design prioritised comfort while embracing modern restraint. Its understated elegance allows it to blend easily into both classic and contemporary interiors, whether used as a reading chair, a bedroom accent, or part of a larger seating arrangement. Timeless in form and honest in construction, it offers both visual clarity and lasting comfort, making it a versatile piece with enduring appeal.

This upholstered armchair is rooted in the European Art Deco movement of the 1930s. It was a period defined by confidence, structure, and a belief in modern luxury. Art Deco design emerged between the wars as a response to earlier ornament-heavy styles, favouring clarity of form, strong geometry, and refined materials. Furniture from this era often balanced comfort with a distinctly architectural presence, drawing inspiration from both classical proportion and the clean lines of modern industry. This chair reflects that mindset perfectly, presenting a strong and confident silhouette that feels intentional rather than decorative.

The form of the armchair is solid and grounded, built within a strong wooden frame that gives the piece its architectural weight. The arms are outlined by smooth and sharply defined wood, creating a sense of enclosure that feels both protective and confident, while the backrest softens the geometry and adds comfort. Upholstered in a warm, powdered pink fabric, the chair gains a tactile softness that contrasts with the firmness of the frame. The upholstery is soft but controlled, with clean planes and subtle curves rather than excess padding. The seat is deep and inviting, designed for practical use, while the proportions remain compact enough to feel composed in a room. The wooden elements frame the upholstery and emphasize the chair’s structure, reinforcing its Art Deco character. Every detail works together, from the block-like legs to the precise transitions between wood and fabric, creating a chair that feels deliberate, balanced, and quietly strong.

As a piece, this armchair captures the lasting appeal of Art Deco furniture: comfort shaped by discipline and elegance rooted in form rather than ornament. It works equally well as a statement chair in a living room or as a refined accent in a bedroom or study. Its presence offers visual weight without heaviness and comfort without excess, in true Art Deco fashion.
