1960's Cognac Leather Scandinavian Modern Beech Wood Lounge Chairs

About the Item

Handsome pair of solid beech wood Mid-Century Modern armchairs made in Scandinavia. These classic, timeless armchairs have been refinished and updated with all new top grain burgundy-cognac leather upholstery and handsome button tufting. Tailored cushions, spindled backs and minimalist clean lines give these chairs a captivating silhouette from all vantages. The arms slope elegantly, enhancing comfort as they cradle the occupants arms. The angled back legs place the chair in a slightly reclined stance, relaxing the sitter. Our skilled team invested countless hours in this restoration. Both chairs were completely disassembled, lock-pins tightened, and reassembled to ensure rock solid stature. The original dark stain on these solid beech wood frames was stripped and refinished in a lighter, amber color that we custom blended to compliment the leather. Finally, full grain leather upholstery was stitched over new foam cushions. Support straps (although original) maintain tight elasticity. Each chair exhibits a single "71" or "I7" stamp, hidden on an interior side rail (see pic). Not exactly sure if this is a maker's mark or date. The origin of the chairs to the best of our knowledge is Yugoslavia or Scandinavia.
