Product description
These simple yet distinctive chairs combine functionality with Scandinavian design aesthetics.
Their construction of solid birch and birch plywood features a warm, honey-colored finish with a fine grain.
The clean, minimalist design with straight lines and a gently curved backrest profile lends the chairs an understated elegance.
The ergonomically shaped seat is subtly rounded, providing comfort even during extended periods of sitting. A particularly striking structural detail is the cross-braced joint on the front legs, which ensures not only stability but also a harmonious appearance.
The chairs can be stacked to save space – a thoughtful feature that underscores their original use in public spaces. This model was designed by the renowned architect and designer Sven Markelius in the 1940s specifically for the concert hall in Helsingborg, Sweden.
Their clean lines and robust construction make them highly sought-after design classics to this day.
Condition: The chairs are in very good, original condition with minor signs of wear consistent with their age.
Dimensions: L46 x W44 x H81 cm
Seat height: 47 cm
