the elegant design, a remarkable example of mid-century modern furniture, consists of organically shaped teak combined with a blended fabric.
the shape of this chair is not only beautiful, but also provides comfortable seating. The fabric is still in very good vintage condition, with some minor stains but no damage, and the chair is very sturdy.

mahjongg chairs are quite rare and hard to find, especially in this excellent condition.
the chair is not marked, but based on the design this is probably the monaco model. This design is attributed to danish designer johannes andersen who also worked for udem möbelfabrik.

with its minimalist style and organic lines, this chair is a great addition to your dining room, living room, bedroom or office and will fit into almost any contemporary and vintage-inspired interior.

a beautiful piece of design history that represents the essence of mid-century design with its style and practical elegance.
