SET OF SCANDINAVIAN CHAIR AND OTTOMAN ATTRIBUTED TO AXEL LARSSON FOR BODAFORS, SWEDEN, 1930S, SET OF 4​​​​​​​.
 
This distinctive 4-piece seating set, attributed to Axel Larsson, was crafted by Swedish manufacturer Bodafors in the 1930s. It captures the essence of early Scandinavian design: clean lines, functional elegance, and masterful craftsmanship. Gently curved armrests give the chairs a flowing, open silhouette, while solid beechwood frames radiate warmth and natural beauty. Seats and backrests, woven from fine paper cord, provide a captivating visual and tactile contrast.
Expertly restored and finished with a protective glaze, the beechwood showcases its grain and sculptural form. Professionally cleaned, disinfected, and carefully refurbished, the set retains its original character and authenticity. More than functional furniture, this ensemble serves as a bold design statement. Perfect for a minimalist interior, a mid-century environment, or as a refined accent in contemporary spaces, its timeless form stands out as a true centerpiece and a striking tribute to Scandinavian design tradition.
