Offered: An iconic design classic from the 70s! This is the original IKEA 'Borkum' lounge chair, designed in 1978 by Swedish designer Johan Bertil Häggström. A beautiful piece of furniture that fits perfectly in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, or retro interior. This model is often confused with the Gelderland 601 'Meneer Oberman' by Jan des Bouvrie, but this is the rare and equally sought-after original IKEA version from the heyday of Scandinavian design.
