Midcentury Norwegian 1970’s Skyline Chair by Hove Mobler

Instantly recognisable as a Norwegian ‘Skyline’ chair, designed by Einar Hove and manufactured by Hove Mobler in the 1970s. This is the low version in chocolate brown leather. These bentwood chairs are truly comfortable and indulgent. The cantilevered frame and the deep, generous tilt provide great contoured support. The leather is thick, soft, supple and in cracking condition with just light signs of use. The leather complements the rich, dark tones of the curved bentwood wood frame perfectly. Chairs of this style have a particularly striking, organic form with their openness  and flowing lines – they aren’t bulky like more conventional lounge chairs. Partner with other lounge seating or use as a stand-alone seat in a bedroom or office.

Full Condition Report
This vintage lounge chair is ‘sold as seen’. The chair has been thoroughly checked and cleaned. The bentwood frame has been revived with a natural beeswax polish but otherwise the finish is original so there are signs of use here and there, primarily on the arm tops where the stained finish has faded – please refer to our photos. The single sectioned leather cushion is in good – very good order with working zips, plump inners, secure buttons and minor signs of wear and tear, just light surface blemishes and wrinkling as you’d expect on vintage leather – please refer to our photos. All the leather has been deep cleaned and a nourishing leather balm applied to restore suppleness and shine. The seat cushion is moored in place with poppers at the back and seat front. The canvas underneath the cushions is in very good order too. It’s a very nicely constructed piece with no wobbles, repairs or joint concerns. There is no maker’s mark but this distinctive design is well-documented so attributed with confidence. Do browse our photos for an accurate representation of their condition and colour. Any queries, just get in touch.
