About the Item
This 20th-century European armchair is a striking example of streamlined design, reflecting the era’s embrace of clean lines, functional form, and understated elegance.
The chair is fully upholstered in a deep black fabric, with white lining along the edges of the armrests, and on the back, creating a striped look that emphasizes the chair’s smooth contours. The combination of black and white not only creates a bold, contemporary look but also suggests the growing shift toward minimalist aesthetics that characterized much of the mid-1900s design landscape. The back and arms of the chair are gently rounded, a feature that contrasts with the often angular, boxy shapes of earlier 20th-century furniture. This subtle curvature imparts a sense of softness and comfort, inviting the sitter to relax within its embrace. The wooden legs are crafted from dark brown wood, adding a natural warmth to the palette and emphasizing the mid-century modern focus on simplicity and practicality. The wood adds a touch of traditional craftsmanship that grounds the design and highlights the mastery of European cabinetmaking.
This chair strikes a balance between the boldness of modernism and the cosiness of classic comfort. It’s form follows function, while also exuding timeless quality, which sets it apart from the fleeting trends of the era. In many ways, it embodies the spirit of the 20th century: forward-thinking yet deeply rooted in tradition.

Oak Lounge Chair with Striped Cushions, The Netherlands 1960s
Located in Utrecht, NL
This 1960s oak lounge chair, originating from the Netherlands, mirrors typical Dutch mid-century furniture - embodying simplicity and functionality. Mid-century modern furniture was mainly designed with the urban home in mind, and Dutch furniture makers aspired to affect lives with good functional design.
This chair has a stunning wooden oak frame, paired with fully upholstered cushions in a premium striped fabric. With a timeless and sturdy design, it is especially successful at balancing modernity and comfort. The composition plays with geometry, combining both the straight and curved lines of the frame with evenly-spaced, straight wooden slats, spherical finials, and legs that are tapered towards the bottom. The details draw attention to the beautiful oak wood colour and grain, whilst the choice of material offers a strong frame and a smooth finish. Oak was a popular material for furniture design in Europe during the mid-century era for several reasons; it is a hardwood that is known for its durability, making it a practical choice for furniture that is designed to last. Additionally, oak has a distinctive and attractive grain pattern that adds visual interest to furniture pieces. The cushions fit snugly within the chair, resting on all sides of the inner frame, providing an extremely comfortable seating experience. The tufting on the upholstery also features buttons that accentuate the design of the luxurious fabric choice.
This lounge chair is representative of mid-century craftsmanship from the Netherlands - whilst also being reminiscent of the Eric Merthen “Amiral” chair...
