Mid Century Armchairs By Marian Grabinski, Kfm, Poland, 1960s

Description

A pair of mid-century modern lounge chairs, designed by Marian Grabiński and manufactured by Krakowskie Fabryki Mebli in Poland in the late 1960s.
Made of beechwood, the armchairs feature a gently contoured silhouette, an openwork backrest with vertical slats, and bell-shaped legs, which are the hallmark of Marian Grabiński’s Type 1038 furniture set.
The seat and backrest are equipped with two-sided, flat cushions with natural filling (coconut fiber). For this pair, a textured upholstery fabric was selected: green on one side and white on the other.
The armchairs are an excellent example of mid-century modern design.

While the mass-produced Type 1038 furniture set originally included only a single armchair, this pair was assembled by combining armchairs from two separate sets (currently, even a single armchair is extremely rare on the Polish market).
This set has undergone professional restoration.
