This is a set of two Siesta armchairs, an iconic design by Norwegian designer Ingmar Relling for Westnofa. Designed in 1965, the chair is a prime example of Scandinavian design, known for its lightweight construction and ergonomic comfort. Its minimalist silhouette and honest materials make it a timeless classic. The construction of each armchair consists of an elegantly curved frame of black lacquered wood, over which a canvas fabric is stretched. This construction serves as a flexible and supportive base for the loose, black leather-upholstered cushions. The combination of the slender frame and the soft, tufted cushions creates an inviting appearance and a relaxed seating experience. This design is praised for its simplicity and functionality, characteristic of the Norwegian design movement. The armchairs are in good, vintage condition, consistent with their age and use. The leather and frame have developed a characteristic patina over the years, contributing to the authentic look of the set. The construction is solid, and the chairs are fully functional, ready for a new home. This set of Siesta armchairs is a refined addition to various interior styles, from Mid-Century Modern to contemporary minimalist. They function excellently as comfortable reading chairs in a living room, library, or as stylish accents in a seating area. 62 x 80 x 80cm
