Elegant and exquisite Art Deco armchair made by Jindrich Halabala for UP Zavody, Czechoslovakia, in the 1950s. Halabala, one of the "Modern classics", was the director and chief architect of UP Zavody. The factory was considered - during the 1950s and 1960s - the largest furniture manufacturers in Europe. This armchair features both the geometrical lines of an Art Deco item and the clean shapes and honest philosophy of the Modern design. The armchair have recently been restored and have new upholstery.

Beautiful pair of chairs made in France, in the 1960s. The structure, made of walnut, is very elegant and reminiscent of Art Deco current. The front legs, cone-shaped, have brass clogs. The chairs were re-upholstered in the spirit of the period and are in excellent condition.

Pair of Swedish Gemla Mobler chairs. The structure and the armrests - made of curved wood - give a natural, organic and pleasant shape. This is completed in a beautiful way by the wool upholstery, in a shade of green that is specific for the Mid-Century furniture. This chairs can fit any nice interior, having the ability to create a warm atmosphere in the room. The chairs are in very good shape with only few age-related traces. At Helge River in Diö, in the heart of the old forests of Småland, lies Sweden's oldest furniture factory (founded in 1861). Its inner sanctum, beech and ash are tamed into time- less furniture by skilled craftsmen who know which way the wood likes to bend. Stretching and flexing, easing and teasing, until the steaming hot wood finds its form. And the wood will not be rushed. The transformation from log into chair takes days, sometimes even weeks. The technique has been used by boat and fence builders since ancient times but was refined in the mid 1800's by Thonet into the iconic chair, worn my millions of seats in the cafés of Europe. The shape is determined by the best and the brightest of their time. Back then their names were Peter Celsing, Yngve Ekström, Sigurd Lewerentz and Carl Malmsten. Now they are Jonas Bohlin, Front, Lisa Hilland and Mats Theselius.

Vintage daybed made in Germany in the early 1980s. Made of wood, this sofa is extensible on its left side (see pictures). The model is typical for the period and the discret beige colour, in a nice dialogue with the dark wooden parts, is a recuring theme of the german rationalism in design. The sofa is in good vintage condition.

Sofa bed with radial armrests, made in Germany in the 1950s. The organic and delicate shapes are consistent with the German Modernism. The legs are flared. The piece is in a very good condition and was recently restored.
