Sigurd Resell Falcon Chair for Vatne Møbler, 1970s, Mid Century Highback Sling Chair - Quality Vintage Leather

Falcon High Back Lounge Chair – Good Vintage Condition

This striking Falcon High Back lounge chair is a classic mid-century modern icon, known for its dramatic high back, suspended leather sling seat, and sculptural bentwood frame. In good vintage condition, it appears to have undergone a professional restoration at some stage with quality workmanship. The rich dark brown leather upholstery remains supple with beautiful button tufting, and the arms are in excellent shape – a rarity for this model as they frequently show heavy wear.

Minor signs of age-appropriate use are visible on the seat cushion see photos but the chair is structurally sound, comfortable, and presents very well overall.

Condition: Good vintage condition with evidence of a quality professional restoration previously. Minor wear to the seat area; arms present exceptionally well. Leather is supple and the frame is solid see photos for any further details on condition.

Materials: Rich dark brown leather upholstery with button tufting, suspended on a robust bentwood wooden frame with metal fixings base.
