ABOUT PRODUCTID 28032
The Falcon armchair with footstool was designed by Sigurd Ressell for Norwegian manufacturer Vatne Møbler in the 1970s, embodying the mid-century modern ethos. The construction features bent teak wood in a pronounced, chocolate-brown stain with a subtle satin sheen that accentuates the wood grain. The original upholstery is genuine leather in a deep, cool-toned brown, its semi-matte finish highlighting natural patina and distinctive button tufting. Both the chair and footstool rest on four-pointed star bases, offering a light yet stable silhouette. The high, gently reclined backrest with integrated headrest and wide armrests enhance comfort, while the suspended seat structure brings out the modernist nature of the design. The set is in good condition, showing gentle signs of use and natural aging of materials, with all original elements intact. The Falcon chair seems to echo the narrative of Norwegian modernism from the 1970s—a time when the home was a sanctuary, and furniture forms reflected a harmony between nature and technology. The leather has acquired a supple character over time, while the bentwood curves evoke images of Scandinavian landscapes. Every play of light on the leather and the sheen of the wood quietly recalls evenings past, when design responded to the search for simplicity and comfort. This armchair and footstool set can be positioned in a lounge area where its sculptural form will be fully appreciated. It works well within mid-century modern arrangements, surrounded by minimalist light wood side tables, neutral rugs, and geometric lighting. Pairing with a wool throw or cushion in natural tones and a bold graphic on the wall can further emphasize its status as a collectible classic.
