About the Item

A pair of elegant Swedish club chairs from the 1940s, beautifully preserved in their original golden velvet upholstery. These armchairs feature a distinctive shell-shaped backrest that gracefully curves outward, creating a soft and enveloping silhouette typical of Scandinavian Art Deco and early Mid-Century design. The plush velvet fabric enhances their luxurious appeal while the piping detail along the seat and backrest adds a refined touch of craftsmanship. Each chair stands on solid, sculpted wooden cabriole legs that provide a sturdy yet graceful base. The proportions are well-balanced — wide enough for comfort yet compact enough to fit seamlessly in both modern and vintage-inspired interiors. The chairs retain their original padding, offering excellent seating comfort and support. With their combination of organic form, warm materials, and impeccable Swedish craftsmanship, this pair embodies the timeless elegance and sophistication of 1940s Nordic design. Perfect for a reading corner, lounge, or statement piece in any living space, they remain in very good vintage condition with only light, age-appropriate wear.
