Illum Wikkelso Armchair And Ottoman Denmark 1960

Armchair and ottoman by Illum Wikkelsø, Denmark, 1960s

Rare set consisting of a lounge armchair and its ottoman, designed by Illum Wikkelsø, a major figure of Scandinavian design in the 1960s.

This model is distinguished by its generous, enveloping lines, offering remarkable comfort. The armchair features a deep seat and slightly sloping backrest, perfectly complemented by the matching ottoman for an optimal relaxation position.

The structure rests on a solid oak base with sculptural shapes, typical of Wikkelsø's work, combining robustness and elegance. The ensemble is upholstered in a textured woollen fabric in light tones, bringing softness and modernity while contrasting harmoniously with the warmth of the wood.

The balance between volumes, materials and proportions perfectly illustrates the Danish design aesthetic of this period.

Very good overall condition, fabric in fine condition, structurally sound, very slight marks of age

An iconic Scandinavian design ensemble, both comfortable and decorative, ideal for a vintage or contemporary interior.
