Upholstered Lounge Chairs in Oil Green Velvet, Europe ca 1950s
About the Item
These luxurious lounge chairs embody elegance and comfort in equal measure. With their soft curves and shell-like bodies, they cradle the sitter in a harmonious and just as stylish embrace.
The defining feature of these lounge chairs is their shell-like design, which create a sense of cosy intimacy and warmth. The soft curves that define their shape not only evoke a sense of inviting comfort but also serve a practical purpose: the curvature conforms to the natural contours of the human body, making them the perfect spot to engage in leisurely conversation. Mid-century modern design has a penchant for soft curves and organic forms, and these lounge chairs are no exception. The preference for such design elements arises from their ability to soften the lines of a room, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. Still, the soft outline of the design is crisp, enhanced by the oil green velvet upholstery, the line tracing, and the single line of button tufting on each chair that highlights the shape by mirroring it. The upholstery adds an extra dimension of classic sophistication to the aesthetic that is reminiscent of the Art Deco era. The craftsmanship is similarly evocative of the Art Deco and design era, with impeccable joinery and carefully crafted legs. The four legs have a conical shape, and while the front legs stand straight, the back ones are lightly splayed to fully support the generously sized bodies.
The flowing lines and gentle curves of these chairs offer a pleasing contrast to the clean lines and angular shapes often associated with mid-century modern interiors. They seamlessly integrate into a variety of design schemes, enhancing the overall aesthetic and imbuing the space with a touch of timeless elegance.

- European Mid-Century Modern Upholstered Lounge Chairs, Europe, circa 1950sLocated in Utrecht, NLMid-Century Modern, a design movement devoted to timeless functionalism established itself in the post-war period with furniture that appealed to the senses. Furniture design was guided by the famous maxim: “Form follows function.” For midcentury designers, materials were used for their own distinct; often a piece of furniture would combine only two materials or colours – creating tension and harmony without fuss or superfluous ornament and these fully upholstered lounge chairs are perfect examples of this sentiment. The duality of two materials and colour scheme create an elegant, self-supporting, and enticingly functional design. The combination of solid wood and high-quality upholstery is traditional in mid-century design for a good reason. The two materials complement each other by highlighting their unique material qualities. This pair falls into the category of the so-called biomorphic midcentury: furniture that relished in organic, curved, smooth surfaces, design that was moulded into the shapes of natural occurrences, and which was a lively contrast to the more austere machine aesthetic...Category
