Ib Koford-Larsen (Denmark 1921-2003)

OPE Sweden 1960s. Leather and solid teak wood.

A classic ‘Seal’ chair in leather and teak by Koford-Larsen who was one of the top midcentury Scandinavian architects during the era. This one is in absolute top condition. The original design is from the 1950s. This chair is a 1960s production that was reupholstered in Sweden around the 1990s.

It is very comfortable as intended and of course stylish enough to sympathetically fit in to any quality interior setting.

Price: 7.900 euro
