Information

Very rare dining chairs model Skedblad designed by Carl Malmsten. Produced in Sweden. This very rare set of dining chairs, model Skedblad, was designed by Carl Malmsten and produced in Sweden in 1933.

The design is a prime example of Scandinavian craftsmanship, emphasizing traditional woodworking techniques and a connection to natural materials. Each chair is constructed from solid pine, featuring a sculpted, curved backrest that resembles the shape of a spoon, lending the model its name. The seat is gently contoured for comfort, with visible dowel joinery at the corners, highlighting the hand-finished craftsmanship. The legs are slightly tapered, reinforcing the lightweight yet sturdy structure.

Carl Malmsten was a key figure in Swedish furniture design, known for his ability to merge classical influences with functionalist ideals. His designs often celebrated craftsmanship and the beauty of raw materials, making them enduring examples of Scandinavian furniture tradition. These chairs remain in good vintage condition, with minor wear consistent with age.

The dimensions are 42 cm in width (16.5 inches), 52 cm in depth (20.5 inches), and 89 cm in height (35 inches), with a seat height of 43.5 cm (17.1 inches).
