This pair of armchairs, designed by Ueli Berger for the Swiss brand de Sede in the 1970s, exemplifies the close relationship between craftsmanship and the bold vision of the mid-century modern era. The wide, low profile and pronounced, angular lines assert a distinctive presence, while the solid wood frame—finished in a deep, nearly black matte—creates a striking, architectural silhouette. Upholstery in natural leather, rendered in a warm cognac shade with subtle orange undertones and arranged in precise, vertical stitching, brings a quilted softness and rhythmic texture that complements the sturdy construction. Thick seat and back cushions provide comfort and resilience, and the visible joinery underscores the high standard of Swiss craftsmanship. The overall condition is very good— the leather displays a uniform, gentle patina and the wood shows no damage or significant wear, attesting to authenticity and careful preservation.These armchairs speak with the geometric boldness of the 1970s, every detail resonating with the spirit of the era: from the sculptural sides to the invitingly plush seating. Their form echoes a time when comfort was not a luxury but a natural response to a changing world. The cognac leather, subtly catching the light, recalls gatherings in modernist villas, where design served as the quiet framework for daily life and conversation. Minor traces of time act as a seal of authenticity—these pieces do not merely remember their era; they embody it.They may be paired with a low coffee table in dark wood or glass to highlight the sculptural frame and warmth of the leather. They perform best in a mid-century modern setting, accompanied by minimalist
