About the Item
A true gem from the 1970s – the Impala lounge chair, designed by Gillis Lundgren for IKEA. The model was introduced in 1972 but discontinued just a year later due to high production costs.
Today, this makes Impala one of the most sought-after pieces of vintage IKEA furniture. With its sculptural form, sleek lines, and distinctive character, it stands out as both a functional lounge chair and a collectible design piece.
A rare opportunity to own an iconic slice of IKEA’s design history.
