Pair of armchairs by Carl Malmsten for O.H. Sjögren

Pair of upholstered armchairs on tapered legs, reupholstered in dyed sheepskin. Carl Malmsten for O.H. Sjögren, Tranås, Sweden. Original plaques. Carl Malmsten, master of Swedish craft-based furniture, found in O.H. Sjögren of Tranås the long-standing maker of his upholstered seating. These armchairs, consistent with the "Samsas" model, a development of the "Konsert" armchair designed in 1923 for the Stockholm Concert Hall, have an enveloping body, rounded arms opening forwards and tapered legs. Reupholstered in dyed sheepskin. Beneath the seat they retain the plaques "AB O.H. Sjögren – Tranås" and "Möbel komponerad av Carl Malmsten". Good condition. They may show signs of age and use. Please pay close attention to the photographs. AG618
