1950s lounge chair by Bengt Akerblom, Sweden

A beautiful lounge chair designed by Bengt Akerblom, manufactured in Sweden in the 1950s. This elegant chair features a teak wood frame with nicely finished legs and armrests. The seat and back are upholstered in a lovely fabric with a two-toned cream coloured pattern. All together this gives the piece a nice appeal, highly recognisable for mid-century Scandinavian design. The slightly tilted backrest adds nicely to its seating comfort! The piece remains in good, vintage condition with some wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina.
