Norwegian Midcentury 1970s Leather Chair by Ingmar Relling for Westnofa
Loungy, relaxed and comfy accurately describe this 1970’s Norwegian bentwood chair, designed by Ingmar Relling for Westnofa. It’s made for indulgent relaxing with its supportive contours, soft arms, its tilt and its supple black leather cushion. We love the design of the ‘safari chair’ floating arms and we love the shape of this piece in profile with its fluid, cantilever frame. These chairs offer an excellent alternative to bulkier, more traditional lounge chairs as the proportions are compact and slim without compromising on comfort.

Description
This is an original, vintage chair that is ‘sold as seen’. It is in good, used condition. We have cleaned the leather, applying a nourishing, natural leather balm. The wooden frame has also been cleaned and a beeswax polish applied. The single leather cushion (it’s a sectioned two-part cushion) is in good order with a working zip, plump inners and secure buttons. There are surface wrinkles, creases and some light fading but nothing to call out – this aging is very much part of vintage leather’s charm. The floating leather arms are a little sunlight faded at their ends but are otherwise in very good condition. The canvas and cord that straps the canvas to the frame is in very good order too. The light bentwood frame is in very good order, with only minor knocks and scuffs but nothing specific to call out. The chair is solid and sturdy with no wobbles. The Westnofa label can be found underneath the seat. It comes with provenance and a good pedigree. Should you have any queries or wish to come and try this chair for comfort, please do get in touch.
