About the Item

A refined and sculpturally expressive lounge chair designed by Finnish architect and designer Olli Mannermaa for Finnart AB. Executed in black leather, this chair exemplifies the clarity, restraint, and ergonomic intelligence characteristic of Scandinavian modernism, while also reflecting Mannermaa’s architectural sensibility. The chair features a low, inviting profile with generously proportioned seating and a subtly reclined back, offering exceptional comfort without sacrificing visual lightness. The supple black leather upholstery is beautifully tailored and develops a rich patina over time, enhancing the chair’s depth and character. The underlying structure is elegantly resolved, with clean lines and balanced proportions that allow the form to read as both functional seating and sculptural object. Produced by Finnart AB, a manufacturer known for high-quality craftsmanship and thoughtful material selection, this chair is equally suited to residential or sophisticated commercial interiors. Its understated elegance allows it to integrate seamlessly into a wide range of settings while still making a confident design statement. Designer: Olli Mannermaa Manufacturer: Finnart AB Origin: Finland Materials: Black leather, wood structure Condition: Very good vintage condition, with minor wear consistent with age and use A timeless example of Finnish design, combining comfort, craftsmanship, and architectural clarity.
