ABOUT PRODUCTID 9609
The Monterey armchair, designed by Folke Ohlsson for Bodafors in Sweden in 1961, embodies the essence of Scandinavian mid-century modernism. Its frame is crafted from oak, featuring a warm, honey-brown hue with subtle golden undertones, finished in a matte natural wax that accentuates the wood grain. The elegantly curved armrests flow seamlessly into the legs, reflecting the precision of Scandinavian joinery. The seat and back cushions are upholstered in a high-quality, cream-colored fabric with a fine, matte weave—uniform and without decorative patterns. Thick, structured cushions with discreet zippers for easy removal create a balanced, comfortable silhouette with a gently reclined back and generous seat. Exposed joinery and the absence of visible hardware emphasize the authenticity and solid craftsmanship of the piece. The armchair is in excellent, fully restored condition, showing no visible signs of wear or patina. This model echoes the voice of 1960s Scandinavia, when function met refined simplicity. Oak introduces a calm, organic note to the interior, while the subtly arched armrests evoke the gesture of a welcoming hand. The cream upholstery diffuses light softly, and the sturdy frame seems to tell the story of an era when furniture was meant to be both enduring and attuned to daily life—ready for decades of future use. The Monterey armchair can be paired with a low teak sideboard or a minimalist mid-century coffee table. It thrives in bright interiors with natural light and a neutral color palette, allowing the oak frame and cream upholstery to stand out gently. Consider combining it with a geometric rug or a slender floor lamp, and add a potted plant in ceramic to highlight its Scandinavian roots and timeless appeal.
