Vintage Leather Kengu Chair and Stool by Elsa and Nordahl Solheim for Rykken

About the Item

A stylish and extremely comfortable vintage leather Kengu chair and stool by Elsa and Nordahl Solheim for Rykken. These were made in Norway, they date from the 1970’s. The quality is exceptional, they are beautifully designed and are really, really comfortable to relax in. The tanned leather cushions have a gorgeous, buttery soft feel and a lovely colour tone. The teak bentwood frames have a stylish design, the cantilever shape means it rocks gently when sat in. We have had the leather revived, re-conditioned and hand coloured to give this gorgeous patina, the teak frames have also been re-polished. These are in excellent condition for their age, with only some extremely minor wear here and there. We also have a matching pair of high back armchairs, pair of low back chairs and single low back armchair that came with this, all seen listed under our other items for sale.
