Pair of Armchairs by Jindrich Smidek, Czechoslovakia, 1960s

A striking pair of mid-century modern armchairs designed by Jaroslav Šmídek in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s. These elegant lounge chairs feature the designer’s characteristic organic bentwood armrests, beautifully crafted from beech wood and flowing seamlessly into the tapered legs. The chairs have been recently upholstered in a bold geometric fabric inspired by the vibrant aesthetics of the period. The expressive red, black, beige, and cream pattern complements the sculptural wooden frames and highlights the timeless modernist silhouette. Generously proportioned seats and gently reclined backrests provide excellent comfort while maintaining a refined visual lightness.
