ABOUT PRODUCTID 12213
This pair of armchairs, designed by K. Kozelka and A. Kropacek for Interier Praha, exemplifies Czech mid-century modernism from the 1950s. The construction features bent oak wood with a medium brown, semi-gloss finish and visible wood grain. The distinctive wide, curved armrests and seamless transitions between elements create a cohesive, sculptural silhouette. The deep charcoal gray upholstery offers a subtle, fine weave texture. Both seat and backrest are generously padded, maintaining clean, geometric lines with gently rounded edges. The legs and lower frame, also made of oak, flow smoothly into the armrests, showcasing excellent joinery with rounded, hardware-free connections. The armchairs are in excellent, restored condition, with new upholstery and refreshed woodwork.These armchairs echo the voice of Central European modernism: on one hand, the discipline of material, on the other, a nod toward everyday comfort and softness. The bent oak narrates the story of 1950s craftsmanship when wood became a carrier of modern form, while the deep gray upholstery reflects the restrained elegance of the era. The form suggests, "we are here to endure and invite relaxation," and the precise joints speak of respect for detail.In a living room, these armchairs could be paired with a low 1950s coffee table—preferably in a matching wood tone—and a floor lamp with a metal base to enhance their modern character. They would work well alongside geometric rugs, period ceramics, or framed graphics. Mid-century modern interiors, eclectic collector's spaces, or contemporary minimalist rooms would all benefit from their calm, balanced presence, which complements a composition rather than dominating it.
