ABOUT PRODUCTID 2618
The Järvi chairs, designed by Niels Gammelgaard for Ikea in 1979, embody the essence of late 1970s Scandinavian modernism. The seat and backrest are crafted from pure white molded plastic with a subtly matte, lightly textured surface. A geometric cut-out in the lower backrest not only provides a visual accent but also enhances ventilation. The legs, made of tubular metal finished in glossy chrome, cross dynamically beneath the seat, creating a striking and stable structure. Finishing details such as visible, precise welds and the contrast between matte plastic and polished chrome demonstrate a careful balance of form and proportion. The chairs are lightweight, sturdy, and preserved in excellent original condition, with no visible signs of use or intervention—all components remain authentic and well-maintained. These chairs echo the spirit of late 1970s modernity, when Swedish design sought a synthesis between functionality and visual freshness. Järvi speaks to an era open to new materials and democratic design—quietly suggesting that beauty lies in simplicity and lightness. The geometric backrest cut-out and gently curved seating seem to whisper about everyday comfort and clarity of form, subtly hinting at a touch of experimentation. Järvi chairs would fit seamlessly into spaces inspired by Scandinavian style, whether bright and minimalist or eclectic with vintage accents. They can be paired with a round table in light wood or glass, as well as with natural-textured textiles. Combining
