About the Item
A popular safari armchair by Maurice Burke, presented in excellent vintage condition. The seat, upholstered in high-quality black faux leather, is suspended from elegant black lacquered metal struts and shows virtually no signs of wear. The flexible seat mounting and sturdy construction provide exceptional comfort. The black wooden frame complements the black leather beautifully, lending the armchair its sophisticated mid-century aesthetic. Only the metal struts and screws exhibit slight, age-related wear, which only adds to the piece's authentic charm.
Designed in the 1970s by Canadian designer Maurice Burke for the Scottish manufacturer Arkana, this model is considered one of the defining pieces of furniture of the era. Burke and Arkana created several design classics during this period – this Safari chair is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after pieces for lovers of iconic mid-century design.
