A rare 1960s "Minerva" executive swivel chair in leather and rosewood by Torbjorn Afdal for Norwegian makers Bruksbo. With padded seat and back, it is supportive and very comfortable. It features torque-adjustable tilt recline, swivel and tilt lock. It is a beautiful example of Scandinavian mid century design. The sculpted rosewood arms have a rich colour and florid grain. The leather is in good vintage condition, with only minor signs of age. This luxurious chair is reminiscent of Finn Juhl and Arne Vodder designs. It would enhance any modern office space.
