About the Item

This rare and highly comfortable lounge chair, model “Borkum”, was designed by Bertil Haggström for Svedemöbler in Sweden during the 1970s. It features a distinctive tubular chrome steel frame that elegantly supports the deeply cushioned seat, backrest, and armrests. The chair is upholstered in its original brown leather, showcasing rich patina and attractive button-tufted detailing, typical of Scandinavian modernist aesthetics. Leather shows beautiful natural wear, no structural issues. This is a perfect collector’s piece for those who appreciate functional comfort and sculptural Scandinavian design.
