About the Item
Norwegian pieces of the 1930s often embody a strong sense of solidity and comfort, paired with subtle curves and a restrained elegance. The club chair originated in the early 20th century, during the Art Deco and Belle Époque periods and were initially designed for the exclusive gentlemen clubs and lounges. They were created to provide a comfortable and stylish seating option for the members of these clubs, who would gather to socialise, smoke cigars, and enjoy various forms of entertainment.
This pair of upholstered club chairs from Norway beautifully exemplifies the balance of tradition and forward-thinking design that characterised the first half of the 20th century. These inviting club chairs feature generously rounded forms, a silhouette that stands out through its honest boldness, with softly sculpted armrests that flow seamlessly into the supportive backs. Their seats create an enveloping form that encourages relaxation. The whole body is plush, fully upholstered for an enhanced sitting experience. The upholstery is a warm, neutral-toned fabric that underscores their inviting character. Initially, the club chair had the name "comfortable chair” or "fauteuil comfortable" to distinguish it from the "fauteuil de style" of an armchair. This pair lives up to the nicknames, thanks to the design choices intended to create comfort for prolonged periods of time. The chairs rest on sturdy, carved wooden feet, which provide a subtle decorative detail without overwhelming the overall form.
Timeless in appearance and thoughtfully crafted, this pair of club chairs can offer a versatile addition to any interior. Their combination of softness and strong structure speaks to the Norwegian dedication to creating furniture that is both practical and deeply comforting.
