Scandinavian modern Edvin Helseth Ottomann in Pine, Model "Trybo" Norway 1960s

About the Item

Edvin Helseth's "Trybo" Ottoman in Pine, Norway 1960s The "Trybo" ottoman, designed by the renowned Norwegian designer Edvin Helseth during the vibrant 1960s, exemplifies Scandinavian modern design. Created in 1964 for the Trysil Cabin, located in Trysil—the largest and most popular ski resort in Norway—this furniture series reflects a unique fusion of style and functionality. The "Trybo" ottoman is characterized by its bold square shape and an innovative construction method that employs wooden dowels instead of screws or glue to join the pieces. This artisanal technique enhances its visual appeal and showcases the exceptional craftsmanship synonymous with Scandinavian design. Crafted from high-quality pine wood, the ottoman features a natural patina that speaks to its well-preserved vintage condition. While showing minor signs of use, the original upholstery adds a layer of charm and authenticity, enhancing the overall aesthetic. Among our collection of Edvin Helseth furniture, the brown editions of the "Trybo" model are especially sought after for their timeless elegance and versatility. Helseth's work embodies the principles of modern Scandinavian design, characterized by simplicity, functionality, and a deep connection to natural materials, making his pieces highly revered in mid-century modern furniture circles. One "Trybo" ottoman is available, and matching lounge chairs can be purchased.
