Scandinavian Midcentury Lounge Chairs by Yngve Ekström for Swedese

About the Item

The lounge chairs by Yngve Ekström for Swedese are a rare find, a true gem of the robust pine furniture era that grew popular in Sweden in the late 1960s. These chairs are a testament to the exceptional design and craftsmanship of that time, with their thick, solid pine construction and elegant rectangular shapes. These lounge chairs are a treasure, not only for their historical significance, but also for their timeless beauty. They are a true representation of the best of Swedish design and craftsmanship, and will be a treasured addition to any home. CONDITION: The chairs have been lovingly restored, with the original wood completely sanded down and left untreated, ready to receive a beautiful patina that will only enhance their already striking appearance. The elastic straps are brand new, providing maximum support and comfort, while the black leather cushions, although not original, are vintage and fit the chairs perfectly. *** PLEASE NOTE that, due to the current global situation, we and our shipping partners are unable to provide guaranteed delivery times for your items.
