Slender legs gently merge into a subtly tilted backrest. The seat and backrest are upholstered with high-quality black synthetic leather. The armchairs are very comfortable and perfectly reflect the spirit of the Mid-Century Modern era.

Jio Möbler was founded in 1941 in Jönköping, Sweden. To this day, the company produces unconventional, exclusive and hand-made furniture upholstered with the highest quality fabrics. Production is based on many years of tradition, high-quality materials and craftsmanship.
