About the Item

Introducing the Mid-Century Red Tulip Armchair by Preben Fabricius & Jørgen Kastholm for Kill International, crafted in the 1980s. This iconic design piece exudes timeless elegance, showcasing a vibrant red hue that adds a pop of color to any space. The leather, though bearing strong discolorations, tells a story of its vintage charm. Notice the unique patina that speaks to the chair’s rich history. Fabricius and Kastholm, the brilliant minds behind this mid-century marvel, were renowned Danish designers celebrated for their contributions to modern furniture. Collaborating during the mid-20th century, they played pivotal roles in shaping the aesthetic of the era. Their designs, characterized by clean lines and a harmonious balance of functionality and aesthetics, reflect the essence of Scandinavian design principles – simplicity, minimalism, and a focus on craftsmanship. Explore the versatility of this armchair with its ability to roll and adjust in height. While the leather on the armrests may show signs of aging with some brittleness, it only enhances the chair’s character. Embrace a touch of nostalgia and sophistication with this distinctive Mid-Century classic, a true testament to the enduring appeal of thoughtful design. The Red Tulip Armchair stands as a testament to Fabricius and Kastholm’s enduring influence on the world of design, leaving an indelible mark with pieces that transcend time and continue to captivate enthusiasts.
