About the Item

The European perspective on cabinetmaking is exceptional, and wood is an omnipresent material in mid-century modernism. This sumptuous rounded armchairs feature the immediately recognizable touches of Modernism: excellent materials, craftsmanship, and elegantly curved shapes. These armchairs hold all the characteristics that define Berga Möbler’s style, from the playful softness, to the organic sophistication. The chairs are slightly tilted backwards by the tapered front legs. The curved and rounded backrests and armrests are a few elements that define the elegance of the pair. Slightly inclined towards the backrest, the armrests provide an excellent seating experience, making the chairs a wonderful choice for any contemporary living space. Not only this, but the backs are tufted with two large buttons that give the pieces a pleasant and welcoming appearance. The upholstery's texture adds to the visual appeal. It enhances the tactile experience, making it a delight to sit on. The frames are constructed from high-quality wood, ensuring durability and sturdiness. Furthermore, apart from being structurally integral, the legs add a touch of mid-century modern flair with their outward bend and smooth finish. The design of this pair possesses an elegant homely curviness, an aesthetic balance that is only seemingly easy to achieve, but these armchairs exude it. Crafted with precision and finished with attention to detail and care for the aesthetic dimension, this pair of armchairs stands the test of time thanks to both their visual and material quality.

Pair of Wooden Armchairs with Upholstered Cushions, Europe 20th Century
Located in Utrecht, NL
With wedge and hammer, the chair-maker slowly creates shorter pieces to be worked into the seat, spindle, crest rail, and legs. This pair of wooden armchairs stands as a proud example of traditional design practice; their solid nail-free joints highlight the skill and artistry of its makers. This construction method enhances the armchairs’ structure and presents the reverence it deserves. This set borrows from great past examples, such as the Windsor chair or - more broadly - the spindle models widely used throughout Europe during the 20th century. These elements render this specific design truly timeless. They are among the most recognisable models of mid-century chairs in Europe. The spindle chairs are a ubiquitous classic that does just as well in the living room, dining room or even the hall, drawing every eye to it. The proportions are well-thought-out, and the see-through design adds a simple and airy touch. Each chair of this set has fifteen symmetrically arranged wooden slim spindles that form the back and armrests. A continuous arm and bow-back frame the slim spindles, offering a seamless joint from the seat and the back. The legs splay outward and run into the seat, which is a single wood piece slightly inclined to assist a more comfortable seating experience combined with the custom-made cushion upholstered in premium bouclé fabric. This model’s design is a classic that goes beyond trends, a product of a deep-rooted desire to showcase impeccable craftsmanship and a stylish aesthetic without compromising the quality of production or materials. This spindle chair set...
