This industrial, swivel office chair was manufactured by the Swedish manufacturer Verkstads AB Lindqvist Motala during the 1960s. It features a simple, mid-century Scandinavian design. The combination of metal, classic upholstery, and wood in its raw shade creates a cohesive, craftsmanlike composition. Well-profiled wooden armrests break the coldness of the metal elements and lend a touch of warmth to the overall design.
The seat and backrest create a compact, streamlined silhouette. They are upholstered in a timeless, melange gray fabric. This shade perfectly complements the patina on the metal leg. The overall design impresses with its striking proportions, where the geometric minimalism of its office origins seamlessly blends with the simplicity of its form. Rather than dominating the space, the chair draws the eye as a distinctive accent, conveying nostalgia and the authentic spirit of a bygone era.
It's an excellent choice for a modern office, home office, or as an industrial accent in a contemporary living room.
The original manufacturer's label is located under the seat. The signature is also stamped on the metal leg.
Verkstads AB Lindqvist, based in Motala, Sweden, is one of the iconic post-war manufacturers that had a profound influence on Scandinavian office and industrial design. The company gained widespread recognition in the mid-20th century, specializing in furniture and consumer goods that combined craftsmanship with modern engineering. Its designs, from iconic metal stools and ladders to ergonomically advanced swivel chairs, became an indispensable part of modern post-war offices, workshops, and architectural studios throughout Scandinavia.
The armchair is in original vintage condition. It shows minor signs of age-related wear, minor abrasions to the metal, and a natural patina. The seat height is 46 cm.
