About the Item

This elegant pair of Art Deco lounge chairs exemplifies the refined design sensibility of Scandinavian craftsmanship from the 1930s and 40s. Featuring clean, geometric lines and a harmonious blend of form and function, these chairs showcase the era’s penchant for luxurious simplicity. The stylish form of these chairs is characterised by open, inviting lines, and soft, round edges. This design approach emphasised comfort and relaxation, while still maintaining an air of luxury. Upholstered in a rich, yet understated fabric, these chairs exude elegance, combining comfort with an aesthetic that is both bold and refined. The use of brass detailing on the feet not only highlights the emphasis on craftsmanship of the period but also spotlights the materials that were popular during the Art Deco era. Furthermore, the rich, warm wood tones of the overlays on the armrests contrast beautifully with the light fabric, enhancing the balanced and sophisticated aesthetic. As these chairs show, Scandinavian furniture designers’ artistic approach was anchored by characteristic Art Deco refinement expressed through graceful forms and traditional materials. These chairs preserve the unique essence of a transformative period in the history of furniture design, embodying the minimalist yet luxurious spirit of the Art Deco era.
