About the Item
Karin Mobring Pine Safari Armchair With Canvas Seat and Leather Straps Made In Sweden For Ikea 1972
Karin Elisabet Mobring (1927-08-07 — 2005-02-17), Furniture designer. Karin Mobring was a furniture designer. The furniture she designed for IKEA has been spread in thousands around the world and brings in high prices at auctions.
Karin Mobring was born in Östersund. She showed artistic talents and her parents Arvid Persson and Helga Persson, née Olsén, encouraged her to apply to the art college Konstfackskolan (now Konstfack) in Stockholm. She started studying there but discontinued her studies in order to start instead at Carl Malmsten’s Verkstadsskola. There she learned above all a feeling for form. Furniture should have a soft, inviting image and be pleasant to the body. The teaching at the workshop school combined practical exercises and reflective conversations. During the weekends, Carl Malmsten undertook excursions with his pupils. They acquired knowledge about different sorts of wood, and via practical exercises their feeling for form was firmly anchored in their touch.
Karin Mobring’s training with Carl Malmsten lasted for three years. In 1950, the school moved to the newly built Hantverkshuset in Stockholm. Georg Bolin, the well-known instrument builder was the school’s principal. The pupils were able to aim at qualified handicraft or industrial enterprise and also qualify as master craftspeople.
