Pair of Vintage Leather Kengu Armchairs by Elsa and Nordahl Solheim for Rykken

About the Item

A stylish and extremely comfortable pair of vintage leather Kengu armchairs by Elsa and Nordahl Solheim for Rykken. They were made in Norway, they date from the 1970’s. The quality is exceptional, they are beautifully designed and are really, really comfortable to relax in. The tanned leather cushions have a gorgeous, buttery soft feel and a lovely colour tone. The teak bentwood frames have a stylish design, the cantilever shape means they rocks gently when sat in. We have had the leather revived, re-conditioned and hand coloured to give this gorgeous patina, the teak frames have also been re-polished. They are in excellent condition for their age, with only some extremely minor wear here and there. We also have a matching pair of low back chairs, low back armchair, high back chair and matching stool that came with these, all seen listed under our other items for sale. Width – 79 cm , 31 inches Depth – 79 cm , 31 inches Height – 99 cm , 39 inches Seat height – 41 cm , 16 inches
