About the Item

“Ecco” Easy Chair by Slettvoll in Cognac Leather and Patinated Rattan, Norway, 1970s This rare “Ecco” easy chair from the Korggrupp series by Slettvoll Manilla Furniture, produced in Stranda, Norway during the 1970s, is a stunning example of Scandinavian natural modernism. The chair combines the relaxed elegance of mid-century Norwegian design with warm, organic materials and exquisite craftsmanship. Its frame is composed of bent and steam-shaped rattan, flowing in soft, sculptural curves that form the base and arms in a continuous, seamless motion. The deep, generously proportioned seat features its original cognac aniline leather cushion, beautifully aged and gently worn, with a rich patina that adds depth and texture to the overall presentation. The chair’s rear is just as considered as the front — with a finely stitched leather back panel, tensioned to the frame using hand-laced leather cord. This thoughtful detail underscores Slettvoll’s dedication to quality and tradition, offering a refined, almost architectural presence from every angle. Measuring approximately 65 cm wide, 77 cm deep, and 73 cm high (seat height 40 cm), the chair offers ample comfort while maintaining a compact and visually light profile. It is ideal for both standalone placement or as part of a larger lounge set. The rattan has developed a wonderful aged tone, enhancing the piece’s character and authenticity. Both materials — the cognac leather and the patinated frame — tell a quiet story of use and care, making this chair not just seating, but a collectible object with soul. Highly sought-after and rarely found outside Scandinavia, this “Ecco” chair is perfect for design lovers who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and natural materials in their interior aesthetic.
