ABOUT PRODUCTID 16434
The Amiral armchair, designed by Karin Mobring for Ikea in Sweden during the 1970s, embodies Scandinavian modernism through its candid use of materials and clarity of construction. The frame is crafted from polished, chromed steel in a sled-base arrangement, featuring rectilinear geometries softened by gentle curves. Seat and backrest are fashioned from thick, natural leather in a light cognac brown with warm, orange undertones, revealing a finely grained surface with light creasing, minor scuffs, and a subtle, genuine patina. The armrests are defined by wide leather straps, fastened with visible metal rivets directly to the frame, creating a coherent, straightforward silhouette with all connections purposefully exposed. The piece remains in very good vintage condition—no cracks or tears in the leather, only minimal, localized signs of use on the chrome frame, and no evidence of contemporary restoration.The Amiral speaks with the voice of the 1970s, an era when comfort and honesty of function redefined Scandinavian interiors. Its visible structure and noble leather seem to state that nothing here is superfluous; every detail and age mark tells of evenings spent in quietness or conversation. The play of light on the mirrored steel reflects the modern Swedish quest for brightness and approachability, while the patina of the leather quietly evokes the passage of hands and years.This armchair may be paired with a low, light wood table or a geometric rug to create a mid-century modern atmosphere in a living room. In more eclectic interiors, it would work well alongside textured textiles, a wall with graphic wallpaper, or graphite wall panels—the patina and rawness of the materials taking the lead. A floor lamp with chromed elements or minimalist accessories might complete the composition, underscoring the sense of clarity and openness.No additional technical details or care instructions are provided in the manufacturer's documentation.
