About the Item

Pair of mid-century safari slingback lounge chairs, crafted in the 1960s with solid acacia wood frames and natural leather slings. The warm tones and expressive grain of the acacia highlight the sculptural quality of the design, while subtle dowel joinery underscores its hand-crafted integrity. The leather is looped around cylindrical wooden dowels that slot into the frame, a traditional safari method that relies on tension rather than hardware. This technique keeps the slings secure while allowing the leather to age gracefully, developing the supple patina that defines these chairs today. The proportions are generous yet restrained, with a slightly reclined profile, wide armrests, and suspended seating that offers both comfort and visual lightness. Their honest materials and elegant construction place them firmly within the canon of collectible mid-century modern seating.
