Oak & Teal Leather Armchair, Axel Larsson, 1936
About the Item
An astonishingly visually-light armchair designed by Axel Larsson in 1936 for AB Svenska Möbelfabrikerna in Bodafors, Sweden.
The open and slender frame of the chair is made from solid oak. Whilst two slings of thick teal-coloured leather create hammocks in the seat and back rest. Stitched within both leather panels is the same horizontally running zigzag pattern.
Despite being approximately 80 years old, the chair remains structurally perfect, and the wood and leather both boast a rich and even patina.

- Pair of Beech 'Bastiano' Lounge Chairs, Afra & Tobia Scarpa, Italy, 1960By Afra & Tobia ScarpaLocated in London, GBA pair of black leather and beech 'Bastiano' lounge chairs, designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa in 1960. Scarpa designed these chairs as a part of the firm's experimental design studio. Based on Le Corbusier's segmented design concept, Scarpa replaced the cold steel design of Le Corbusier's original with a solid wooden base – resulting in a solid and weighty appearance, married with a beautiful warmth. We believe these to be early 1970s examples, produced shortly after Knoll acquired Gavina SpA...Category

- Black Leather Hammock Chair, Mogens Voltelen, circa 1930By Mogens VoltelenLocated in London, GBThe interplay of straight and curved lines within the chair’s design is very visually satisfying. The rhythm of lines is evident not only in the mahogany wood frame but within the leather too. The seat and back having a hammock construction mean the leather is allowed to bow naturally. The continuous curve that the back legs are carved into and the apron (wooden rail across the front) at the front of the chair both echo the exact arc of the leather hammock...Category
