YVES EKSTROM Modern Design Lounge Chair

YVES EKSTRÖM TEAK LOUNGE CHAIR – SCANDINAVIAN MODERN, MID-1960S
Sweden, c. 1960s | Newly Upholstered

An exceptional and rare offering from the golden era of Scandinavian design, this sculptural lounge chair by celebrated Swedish designer Yves Ekström exemplifies the effortless elegance and restraint that defines mid-century Northern European aesthetics.

Designed in the mid-1960s and produced in Copenhagen, this piece is a masterclass in form and proportion. Its sinuous teak frame, crafted from solid wood and retaining its rich, original patina, draws the eye with a strikingly slender silhouette and sweeping curves. The wood’s warmth and character have deepened beautifully over time, showcasing the enduring quality of Scandinavian craftsmanship.

Newly reupholstered in a refined, contemporary textile chosen to echo the chair’s modernist roots, the seat offers a fresh visual contrast while honoring the design’s mid-century integrity. The result is a piece that feels timeless—equally suited to minimalist interiors or layered, collected spaces.

Both a functional lounge chair and a sculptural design object, this piece is a rare find in such pristine condition. Offered exclusively by MWM DESIGN INTERIORS, purveyors of curated fine design and collectible furnishings for the most discerning clientele.
