Three-Seater Mid-Century Modern Sofa by Berga Möbler, Sweden 1940s

$ 9,453
  • Description
    Designed in the early phase of what we know today as mid-century modern, this charming sofa is unique evidence of how traditional Swedish craftsmanship was brought into modernism. Berga Möbler, later called Berga Form, began manufacturing furniture of the highest quality in 1896. They were represented in the important Swedish exhibition H55 in 1955. The company was located in Berga, Smaland, in the south of Sweden, where they manufactured their furniture using the best materials and with particular attention to the environment. A functional anchor piece is needed to introduce mid-century modern furniture to any interior, and this three-seater sofa is perfect to fill that role.

    This sofa holds all the characteristics that define the manufacturer's style: soft, organic, playful, and sophisticated. The sofa is slightly tilted backwards by the tapered front legs distinctly bent outwards. They have a precise curvature towards the end, which has become a distinctive feature of Berga Möbler's designs. The curved and rounded backrests and armrests are a few elements that define the elegance of the sofa. Slightly inclined towards the backrest, the armrests provide an excellent seating experience, making this sofa the best choice for any contemporary living space. The sofa's frame is constructed from high-quality wood, ensuring durability and sturdiness. Apart from being structurally integral, the legs add a touch of mid-century modern flair with their outward bend and smooth finish. Each curve and contour of the sofa is meticulously designed to provide aesthetic pleasure and ergonomic support. The cushioning is firm yet plush, perfectly balancing comfort and support. This attention to detail ensures that the sofa is beautiful and practical for everyday use.

    Swedish master cabinetmakers have been creating products that last a lifetime and become heirlooms naturally. Crafted with precision from solid wood, finished with attention to detail and care for the aesthetic dimension, this sofa stands the test of time thanks to its visual and material quality. In production, Berga Form strives to maximise the use of materials and minimise waste. The design and manufacturing of Berga Form's furniture fulfill the principles of a maximum product life. All materials must be recyclable, reusable or replaceable to the utmost possible extent. Since 1980, the company's furniture has been designed by individual designers, making Berga Form the trend-setter in furniture design.
