About the Item

Patinated leather safari lounge chair Karin Mobring, Sweden 1970s. This Ikea Classic Vintage Lounge chair was designed 1972 by Karin Mobring. It is made of a solid Scandinavian pine wood. This version is rare and it is black lacquerd from the producer IKEA. The design and the look and feel of this rare chair reminded me of what someone once taught me about good sculptures, "they look great from all angles". And what is particularly important for a chair, that it is very comfortable to sit in as well. Which it is. In this world people have very different thoughts about IKEA furniture and they are all right. Simply, because people all have different ideas about designs and quality and durabilty etc. The reality is that IKEA has never been bigger or more popular (worldwide) and especially some of the earlier design will be the antiques of the future. This rare, stylish and comfortable, midcentury modern chair from the early days of Swedish Ikea design is one of those antiques of the future and they will become more and more collectible. This particular chair is as strong and stable as the day it was made and for its age it is still in good condition with a nice rich used patina and it will look great in many a midcentury design interior.
