Mid-Century Modern Rosewood Cognac Leather Reclining Lounge Chair
By Göte Möbler Nässjö
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Condition: Original Vintage Condition Materials: Rosewood, Cognac Leather This Mid-Century Modern reclining lounge chair by Göte Möbler Nässjö exemplifies Scandinavian comfort and craftsmanship from the 1970s, designed for everyday living rather than formal display. Upholstered in original cognac leather, the chair was meant to age gracefully, developing a rich patina through years of use in living rooms and reading corners.

Subtle button tufting and softly contoured armrests enhance long-term comfort, making this a piece intended for extended lounging rather than occasional seating. Paired with its matching ottoman, the chair becomes a functional centerpiece—perfectly suited for conversation, reading, or unwinding at the end of the day. Fun Historical Fact During the 1960s and 1970s, Swedish manufacturers like Göte Möbler focused heavily on ergonomic seating, responding to a growing cultural emphasis on comfort, wellness, and time spent at home. Reclining lounge chairs became especially popular in Scandinavian households, where long winters encouraged cozy interiors and functional furniture. Rosewood was prized during this era for its durability and striking grain, often reserved for higher-end designs. Today, original Swedish recliners...
