About the Item

The 1960 armchair version of the metal frame chair complements the 1960 dining chair family. Designed to be used in busy settings, this comfortable chair has pleasant to touch wood armrests and a plywood seat and backrest. With its sturdy metal frame, the 1960 armchair can easily cope with long days of intensive use. It is also available with offset upholstery for the seat and backrest. The 1960 family range is built on the satisfying invention of bending wood into shapes which optimally suit the human body. While maintaining the likeable tactile properties of natural wood, the design that underpins the 1960 range never goes out of style. The cleverly designed curves of the original chair by Niko Kralj inspired us to work on a complete 1960 range to meet present-day demands for authentic design and uncomplicated warmth. With over two million chairs produced, the designs of Niko Kralj (1920-2013) have served numerous generations. After the Second World War, traditional production methods gave way to modern inventions and led to a new era of furniture design. As a trained architect and an absolute pioneer in this field, Niko developed truly innovative pieces for the time and became one of the first ever industrial designers. It’s little wonder that fellow professionals are gradually recognising his work, which has been rewarded with permanent displays in design museums such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, Designmuseum Denmark and The International Design Museum Munich. 1960 armchair in Mid-Century Modern style is now available natural oak.
