ABOUT PRODUCTID 1444
The H269 armchair, designed by Jindřich Halabala for UP Závody in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s, represents one of the most iconic examples of Czech Art Deco. The frame, crafted from bent beechwood with a high-gloss finish, highlights the distinctive, flowing curves of the armrests and base. The light, cool grey upholstery—woven with a subtle, fine texture—creates a striking contrast with the deep, almost black, polished frame, resulting in a bold, modernist silhouette. The seat is generously wide, with a gently reclined backrest for comfort typical of Halabala’s designs. Meticulous workmanship is evident in the seamless joints and smooth transitions between elements. The original spring construction has been preserved, while the wood and upholstery have been professionally restored with no visible signs of use. Condition: restored, with no visible traces of wear.This armchair channels the spirit of Central European modernity of the 1930s: the dynamic lines of the bentwood evoke the energy of the era’s modernism, while the balanced color contrast reflects the Art Deco appreciation for classic values. It is a piece that seems to recall a metropolitan salon from ninety years ago, where avant-garde met the pursuit of comfort and durability. The glossy frame catches the light like a theatrical proscenium, while the wide seat invites relaxation—as if the chair remembers the conversations and readings of decades past.The H269 can be paired with a geometric walnut or black glass coffee table, creating a composition drawn from Art Deco or modernist influences. It works well alongside light-toned walls and soft textiles—such as a grey rug or linen curtains. It is worth combining it with a lamp of streamlined form and artwork in simple frames to emphasize the sculptural quality
