With its bentwood frame and suspended seat, the EVA model perfectly exemplifies the Swedish designer\u2019s approach, which is based on ergonomics, lightness, and the expressive use of materials. It is best known for its series of webbing seats.  <\/p>\n<p>This EVA armchair was produced by DUX, the second official manufacturer of this model.<br \/>This rare version is distinguished by its beech wood frame and its backrest and seat made of woven cognac-colored leather webbing. The leatherwork creates a supple, breathable surface while highlighting the armchair\u2019s lightweight, architectural construction. <\/p>\n<p>The organically shaped armrests and legs naturally contour the body and give the armchair a presence that is both sculptural and warm. The contrast between the light wood and the cognac-colored leather lends the piece a timeless elegance. <\/p>\n<p>Bruno Mathsson is one of the leading figures of modernist Swedish design. His research into ergonomics and body posture led him to develop a particularly personal approach to armchairs and seating. His designs combine great formal simplicity with remarkable comfort.  <\/p>\n<p>This model, produced by DUX, is beautifully crafted. It shows signs of age, with small marks that give it a unique patina. Overall, it\u2019s in very good vintage condition.  <\/p>\n<h2><b>FEATURES<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Designer :<\/b> Bruno Mathsson<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Model<\/b> : EVA<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Manufacturer:<\/b> DUX<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Period:<\/b> 1980s<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Origin:<\/b> Sweden<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Frame: <\/b>Bent beech<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Seat and backrest:<\/b> Braided cognac-colored leather straps<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li>Type: Lounge chair \/ recliner<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Condition: <\/b>Very good vintage condition<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dimensions:<\/strong> W 60 (with armrests) x D 71 x H 82 cm \u2013 Seat height: 34 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>Shipping<\/strong><\/strong>: \u00f6ldDesign ships throughout France, Europe, and worldwide.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Price for the pair <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h2>Rialto chairs by Carl Gustaf Hiort af Orn\u00e4s for Puunveisto Oy<\/h2>\n<p>A pair of \u201cRialto\u201d armchairs designed by Finnish architect and designer Carl Gustaf Hiort af Orn\u00e4s in 1957.<\/p>\n<p>Original models produced by his own furniture company, Puunveisto Oy.
