About the Item

A rare set of six stunning midcentury, modern, stackable, high back, rosewood, senior, dining chairs part of the “Scandia” series, designed by Hans Brattrud for Hove Møbler, Norway, circa 1957.

A beautiful example of fine Scandinavian Modern craftsmanship features modern styling with a distinct, beautiful, design. Perfected in bent rosewood, curved, slats that form the back and seat of the chair. The curved back provides lumbar support making these as comfortable as they are beautiful. The chairs sit on a chrome base that forms a hairpin frame of bent metal. The lines and attention to detail are exquisite. Classic Mid-Century Modern styling with sturdy, solid construction.
