Bruno Mathsson, "Pernilla 69" lounge chair & stool, Dux
-
Description
One of our favorite Scandinavian modern designs by the prolific and talented Bruno Mathsson (1907-1988) who created this sinuous "Pernilla" lounge chair in 1944 with woven linen strapping. The story that he created seating shapes sculpted from snowbanks - is likely true. The leather version was introduced in 1969 by Dux of Sweden and this ribbed version far less common in the market - and in good condition. Bent beechwood frame with original neck pillow and ottoman. Iconic design. Produced and marked by Firma Karl Mathsson Dux.
Seat height : 11.8". Stool height : 15.75". -
