About the Item

Beautiful design and amazing original condition chair. There is something immediately reassuring about this Diana Safari Lounge Chair by Karin Mobring. Designed in Sweden in the 1970s, it carries a quiet sense of presence, the kind that draws you in rather than asks for attention. The chair sits low and generous, its solid wooden frame offering a feeling of stability and shelter. Broad armrests guide your posture naturally, while the suspended canvas seat responds gently to the body. Leather straps connect everything with subtle strength, revealing a design that understands comfort on an intuitive level. Time has been kind to this piece. The wood has darkened and softened in tone, developing a depth that only comes with age. The fabric shows a lived-in texture, not as wear, but as memory, evidence of a chair that has been used, appreciated, and cared for. Nothing feels overstated; everything feels intentional. This is the kind of chair you return to at the end of the day. A place to slow down, to read, to think, or simply to sit in silence. It brings warmth to a room and a sense of calm that is difficult to manufacture. More than an object, this lounge chair is an atmosphere. It offers comfort, character, and a lasting connection to Scandinavian design from a time when furniture was made to serve life, not trends. If you like the look and great style of this mid-century chair as much as we do, then you will love our price. Also, because perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 5 days are complimentary. Maximum height x width x depth: 27.6 x 25.1 x 24.7 inches. Maximum height of the seat: 14.5 inches. * The upholstery has been professionally cleaned, allowing the natural texture of the fabric to remain while ensuring a fresh and well-maintained presentation.

Early Karin Mobring Model Cognac Leather Safari Lounge Chair Vintage Ikea, 1970s
Located in Lisse, NL
Beautiful design and amazing original condition chair. The design and the look and feel of this rare chair reminded me of what someone once taught me about good sculptures, "they look great from all angles". And what is particularly important for a chair, that it is very comfortable to sit in as well. Which it is. In this world people have very different thoughts about IKEA furniture and they are all right. Simply, because people all have different ideas about designs and quality and durabilty etc. The reality is that IKEA has never been bigger or more popular (worldwide) and especially some of the earlier design will be the antiques of the future. This rare, stylish and comfortable, midcentury modern chair from the early days of Swedish Ikea...
