Description

A carpenter by trade, attending the Norwegian National Academy of Craft & Art Industry, Sigurd Ressell became one of the leading lights of mid-century Scandinavia design and no chair gained more prestige than the Falcon chair series that began in the early 1970s. With a large number of design variation, all were made with a bentwood frame supporting a cotton sling and leather cushions. This set without the usual fitted/buttoned cushion - instead with a wrap cushion extending over the top and seat base. We have FOUR of these great chairs all in good condition in black leather with a rare contrasting red piping. Produced by Vatne Møbler in Norway 1970s.
