Mid century Zetti Lounge Chair by John Bertil Häggström, for Ikea 1970s Swedish Bauhaus Armchair, Brown Corduroy & Tubular Steel
Vintage Zetti Lounge Chair by John Bertil Häggström for IKEA / Swed-Form, Sweden, 1970s
A distinctive vintage lounge chair from the 1970s, designed by Swedish designer John Bertil Häggström and associated with the Zetti model by IKEA / Swed-Form, Skillingaryd, Sweden.
This sculptural armchair combines a bold, architectural tubular steel frame finished in dark brown lacquer with generously padded, button-tufted cushions upholstered in warm caramel-brown corduroy. Its rounded armrests, deep seat, and inviting proportions create a relaxed yet expressive silhouette that reflects the experimental spirit of 1970s Scandinavian furniture design.
A particularly charming detail is the integrated fabric side pocket, adding a practical touch to the chair’s distinctive design.
With its combination of Bauhaus-inspired geometry, soft upholstery, and sculptural metalwork, this chair makes a statement in a mid-century modern living room, reading corner, vintage office, or eclectic designer interior.
