A display of fine craftsmanship, this vintage Model 537 ‘Oresund’ Chair was designed by Børge Mogensen and manufactured by Karl Andersson & Söner, circa 1960s. Featuring a hand-woven seat in natural paper cord wrapped over an oak frame, this chair was inspired by American Shaker furniture and was one of the first mass produced successes for Karl Andersson & Söner. The organic feel and use of natural materials are all signature traits that contribute to this chair’s unwavering timelessness.
