An elegant pair of “Karin” easy chairs designed by Bruno Mathsson and produced by Dux in 1969, exemplifying the refined ergonomics and understated sophistication of Scandinavian modernism. Known for his deep understanding of human posture and comfort, Mathsson created designs that seamlessly unite function with a quiet, enduring aesthetic.
Each chair features a slender tubular chromed steel frame, lending a sense of lightness and structural clarity. The soft, generously proportioned cushions have been newly upholstered in suede, enhancing both comfort and tactility while preserving the integrity of the original design.
The composition reflects a harmonious balance between industrial precision and inviting softness—hallmarks of Mathsson’s work. The low, relaxed profile and subtle curvature of the frame create an effortless seating experience, while the restrained palette allows the materials to speak with quiet confidence.
A timeless and versatile pair, equally suited to modern interiors and classic mid-century settings.
