"Lysmasken" chaise longue in aluminium and canvas, designed by Eric Sigfrid Persson, 1970s.

"Lysmasken" chaise longue in aluminium and fabric designed by Eric Sigfrid Persson and produced by AB Möbelkultur in Sweden in the 1970s. A true emblematic piece of Scandinavian modernism, the Lysmasken is distinguished by its sculptural silhouette and innovative construction. Its continuous aluminium frame replaces traditional legs, creating a fluid, lightweight, and almost floating structure. The seat rests on a taut fabric structure that naturally conforms to the body, offering soft and ergonomic comfort. The teddy fabric covering provides a warm contrast to the polished aluminium, enhancing its organic and futuristic aesthetic. The name "Lysmasken, " meaning "glowworm" in Swedish, perfectly reflects the experimental and avant-garde spirit of Nordic design in the 1970s. This chaise longue remains a rare and sought-after piece among collectors of Scandinavian design today.
