Swedish mid century modern solid teak high back "Mingo" lounge chair by Yngve Ekstrom, produced by Swedese the 1960s. Newly refinished and reupholstered in a soft tweed blend from Black Edition's Kiriko collection. Paired with a Wegner-style walnut ottoman in matching upholstery.
The Mingo chair's arms are as impressive as anything we've seen. Solid old growth teak is sculpted into a soft, flowing form that tapers to a knife's edge. The canted pitch of the rear legs gives the chair a commanding if slightly aggressive posture.
A very comfortable statement piece that is equal parts practical and visually striking. One of our favorite chairs to date.

Neither piece in this set is marked. We have been unable to identify a maker for the ottoman, though it is styled after Hans Wegner's Papa Bear ottoman. The lounge chair, though unmarked, is unmistakably Ekstrom's Mingo chair, based on the construction, materials, and dimensions.
