Vintage Artifort Nina Chair, Red Leather, René Holten 1990s

Iconic “Nina” chair by Artifort, designed by René Holten in the 1990s and upholstered in rich red leather for a bold yet timeless look. This particular chair comes with special provenance: it was originally used in the Austrian Airlines lounge at Vienna Airport in the 2000s, adding a subtle touch of aviation and design history. The Nina is known for its gently rounded backrest and generous seat, offering excellent comfort and support while keeping a light, sculptural silhouette. The chrome‑plated metal legs give the chair a refined, architectural line that pairs easily with both vintage and contemporary interiors. The leather has been carefully treated with natural leather care products (including beeswax), nourishing the hide and bringing back a soft, beautiful sheen without erasing its vintage character. Condition. Great vintage condition with minimal signs of use consistent with careful lounge use in the 1990s. Leather shows light patina but no major defects; please see photos for details. Frame is solid and stable. Dimensions. Height: 79 cm / 31.1 in. Seat height: 43 cm / 16.9 in. Width: 62 cm / 24.4 in. Depth: 62 cm / 24.4 in. Styling tip. Let the chair shine as a statement piece: place it next to a low side table with a sculptural lamp or stack of art books, or use a pair as accent chairs flanking a credenza to bring a gallery‑like feel into your living space.
