About the Item

Sculptural 'Venus' rolling office chair by renowned Swedish designer Börje Johanson showcases the organic modernism that defined Scandinavian design. The distinctive egg-shaped seat, upholstered in supple black leather, demonstrates Johanson's mastery of curved forms and ergonomic function. Mounted on an adjustable polished steel pedestal base with smooth-rolling casters, this chair embodies the space-age optimism of Mid-Century Modern workplace design. The leather upholstery shows authentic character from decades of use, adding depth and history to its sculptural silhouette. Adjustable height mechanism allows customization from standard desk to bar height positions. Maximum adjusted height reaches 35 inches, making it versatile for various workspace configurations. Original condition with visible wear that speaks to quality construction and enduring Danish Modern aesthetics.
