About the Item

Carl-Johan Boman was a key figure in Finnish furniture design during the early 20th century. As the head of Oy Boman Ab, he played a pivotal role in shaping Finnish modernism with high-quality craftsmanship and innovative design. Design This rare pair of lounge chairs showcases Boman’s refined approach to seating. The curved backrest and angled silhouette create a balanced yet striking profile. Covered in luxurious sheepskin, the upholstery enhances the organic nature of the design while providing exceptional comfort. The dense texture of the sheepskin adds warmth and depth, complementing the sculptural form. Subtle button tufting introduces a discreet decorative touch, reinforcing the thoughtful construction. The robust frame ensures longevity, while the gently rounded edges invite relaxation. The tapered wooden legs, slightly splayed, give the chairs a grounded yet airy presence, contributing to both stability and aesthetic harmony. Their proportionate design makes them adaptable to various interior styles, from minimalist modern to richly textured vintage spaces. These chairs are more than just functional objects. They embody a period of Finnish design where craftsmanship and material choice defined an era. With their inviting form and durable construction, they offer a distinctive and cozy seating experience. Whether placed in a contemporary or vintage setting, they retain their timeless appeal. Condition The condition of the chairs is very good with only minor signs of wear on the legs. Please watch the video for a more accurate representation of the colors and details, as it sometimes offers a clearer view than the photos.

Wingback Armchairs In Poplar And Mohair By Orlando Orlandi, Italy 1950's
By Orlando Orlandi
Located in Hellouw, NL
Not much is known about Milanese architect Orlando Orlandi except that he worked with Gio Ponti for a certain period of time. It has been suggested by various sources that this specific design is also a fruit of their collaboration, but this has not been confirmed. It may be assumed that the gentlemen shared their avant-garde formal language. Graceful, powerful and very architectonic. Imagine a décor from a Luca Guadagnino...
