Mid Century Vintage Swedish Lounge Chair by Scapa Rydaholm, 1970s

About the Item

This chair is everything!! For all of you interior designers out there, here is your chance to custom upholster this beauty, or just keep it as is with all of it's current vintage charm for yourself or your client. This extremely fashionable late 1960's / 1970's armchair is a complete stunner. It is a Swedish Lounge Chair by Scapa Rydaholm. On the bottom it has a sticker that reads "MADE IN SWEDEN". This extremely one-of-a-kind rare chair is way under market value for a chair of this caliber of this era because the upholstery is not perfect, and we highly recommend that the next owner and designer reupholsters this beautiful piece. What a super sweet shaped, chrome mid century lounge chair! And a great opportunity to reupholster it however you wish-- though the chic original vintage character may be just what you are looking for. This lounge chair features a gorgeous, unusual, sculptural chrome frame, and the original suede material upholstered cushions and armrests. This is a classic mid century modern lounge chair and will go perfect with many different decors from Mid-Century Modern to Post Modern to Hollywood Regency.
