“Congo” folding lounge armchair designed by Åke Fribytter for IKEA in the 1970s. It features a collapsible wooden frame with its original canvas sling seat and leather armrests. The chair has a low, relaxed profile with a gently reclined back, offering a comfortable seating position for reading or lounging. Its foldable design makes it practical and easy to store when not in use. A distinctive example of 1970s Swedish design, with a subtle safari-inspired aesthetic that integrates well into a living room, bedroom, or studio setting. As each piece is unique, I can offer a short, no-obligation reservation for up to 24 hours without payment. After this period, the item will return to open sale to ensure availability for other buyers. Condition: Good vintage condition with age-related wear to the wood, canvas, and leather, including minor marks and light staining. The original loose cushions, sometimes found with this model, are not present. The chair is fully usable as is, or can be complemented with cushions to suit your interior.
