It is the classic modernist safari structure that continues to steel the show even today. Arne Norell's (1917-1971) Ilona chair and sofa was designed in 1971 and still manufactured in the same Sweden factory in Aneby. Taking clues from the Indian Roorkhee Chairs used by the British military - this 2-seat sofa is constructed with dowels, leather and solid ashwood connected with buckled leather strapping. Beautiful black saddle leather slings with original 1970s design floral seat cushions in very good condition. Manufactured by Norell Møbler, Sweden. Later production.
