Set of 4 Armchairs in Metal and Leather, France, 1970's
About the Item
Set of 4 very uniquely shaped dinging chairs with crazy armrests and rounded cushions varying in thickness and running all the way through to the bottom, where they do not really have any function anymore. That's what makes these chairs so confusing. They are probably french because I have seen similar items from that country with the same materials: white steel and this color leather. They are very heavy because of the steel construction that covers the whole back and is part of the seating frame too. It's definitely the rounded shapes that makes this set Stand out from the rest because most of the time chairs have something straight in them but these have nothing straight. Well, the armrests maybe, that look a bit out of proportions but work very well. The only straight part is the white metal stripe visible from the sides: Good arty chairs to sit in and have a deep conversation (about the weather or so).
The leather is in very good condition and the color really comes out because of the contrasting white.
A one of a kind set!!

- Rosewood Set of 2 Niels Otto Møller Armchairs No 62, Denmark, 1960'sBy Niels Otto Møller, J.L. Møllers MøbelfabrikLocated in Amsterdam, NLAn elegant anthropomorphic set of 2 armchairs in rosewood by the renowned Danish designer Niels Otto Møller. Back in the days these chairs wíth armrests were always part of a set of more of these chairs, most of them without armrest. Depending on how many children you had or how many guests you would like to seat, you could decide how many you wanted. Most of the time it was a set of six. It was quite common that only the father and let's assume also the mother (we are talking Scandinavia who are always well ahead of their time), had one wíth armrest and the rest of the set would be without the armest. For this reason the ones with armrest are always a bit higher in value. You could probaly find these charis at the head and foot of the table with the father and mother overseeing the evening dinner. These armchairs are made of solid of high quality Brazilian rosewood so they are very sturdy and heavy. Brazilian rosewood has good carving properties and you can see that back in the shape of the frame with nicely made details. The result of all this is an open and inviting chair with a formal and classic appearance. Lots of details such as the little hornets and the nice curves in the armrest both in the length as in the corner. The two chairs both need reupholstery which is the perfect way to let them melt together as a set, because the rosewood is exactly similar in colour. We would advice some high quality leather and no filling to create the same look as the one with the lighter upholstery, where you can still see the shape of the frame, which is an essential part of the design. So as the one on the right in the pictures. These chairs by Niels Otto Møller are still in production but not in Rosewood anymore. So the rosewood-version is the most sought after because Brazilian Rosewood is a very much protected species nowadays. If you can prove that these chairs were made before a certain period, and in this case we can, then you export them with the correct forms...Category
