The Åby Möbelfabrik furniture factory, located in Sweden’s Växjö municipality, became known for its expertly crafted pine furniture. Its production included well-known pieces such as the ‘SMI 110’ dining chair, classic rocking chairs, and distinctive models like this armchair.
This rare barrel-shaped armchair is reminiscent of Axel Einar Hjorth’s (1888-1959) celebrated Sportstugemöbler (sports cabin furnishings) series, a collection of minimalist wooden furniture designed for country homes and produced by Nordiska Kompaniet. The various models in the series were named after islands in the Stockholm archipelago, including ‘Utö’, ‘Värmdö’, ‘Lovö’, ‘Blidö’, and ‘Sandhamn’.
