Vintage Design
This exceptional pair of armchairs, designed by Gunnar Asplund for the Göteborg Law Courts (1934-37), exemplifies his masterful approach to functional elegance. Asplund, renowned for his design of the Law Courts as an annex to the Göteborg City Hall, crafted these chairs in collaboration with Carl-Axel Acking. The armchairs feature a rich cherry wood frame, showcasing Asplund’s commitment to refined materials and craftsmanship. The design reflects the architectural and interior design principles he applied to the Law Courts, integrating seamlessly into the building’s aesthetic. The leatherette re-upholstery, in a striking teal hue, complements the warm tones of the wood. These armchairs are rare finds, offering a unique opportunity to own a piece of historical design. Their understated yet sophisticated presence makes them a distinguished addition to any collection or interior setting. There is also an option for custom fabric or leather to suit your preferences.
