The Artifort Congo chair, designed by Theo Ruth, is an iconic piece from the 1950s that immediately catches the eye. This design is known for its unique hinge-free construction, where the seat and backrest interlock seamlessly thanks to gravity. This specific armchair is upholstered in a mottled, light grey (100%) wool fabric that offers a warm and inviting texture. The base consists of black lacquered wood with the characteristic curved legs that give the design its dynamic appearance. The combination of the soft upholstery and the dark wood creates a beautiful contrast. The chair is in good vintage condition, commensurate with its age and use. The original form and character of the design have been well preserved, contributing to the authentic appearance of this piece of furniture. This Artifort Congo fits perfectly in a Mid-Century Modern interior or as a striking accent in a contemporary living room. It is a comfortable reading chair that simultaneously brings a piece of Dutch design history into your home.
