1960's Bentwood Armchair by František Jirák for Tatra Nábytok (2 of 2)
This stunning mid-century lounge chair is a masterclass in Czechoslovakian design from the 1960s. Attributed to the celebrated designer František Jirák for Tatra Nábytok, the piece features the iconic "Brusel" style silhouette that defined the era. Its most striking feature is the pair of elegantly swept bentwood armrests, which transition seamlessly into the tapered leg structure to create a sense of fluid, organic motion.
The solid beech frame has been carefully restored to highlight the warm, natural grain of the wood, providing a sophisticated contrast to the new upholstery. For a luxurious modern update, the chair has been fully reupholstered in a premium, deep-pile "sheepskin" look bouclé. This high-textured fabric is exceptionally soft to the touch, offering a cozy and inviting feel that balances the sharp, architectural lines of the vintage frame. Whether placed in a minimalist reading nook or as a statement piece in a contemporary living room, this armchair brings together timeless European craftsmanship and ultimate comfort.
Please study all photos as they make up an important part of the description.
Dimensions are approximately W 66cm (seat width 54cm) | D 69cm | H 78cm (seat height 40cm)
