The Falcon Chair has become one of the most recognizable and exalted Scandinavian furniture designs of the entire Mid-Century Modern Design era. The frame is constructed of bent and laminated beech wood harvested from sustainable forests and stained rosewood. The original leather, in a rich mocha color, adds warmth and character with it's light patina familiar to something utilized and loved. With it's matching ottoman,
The Falcon Chair is an audacious amalgamation of superior materials, bold stance and renowned comfort. The body is made of canvas and was attached to four arms with sturdy metal hooks with hand-stitched leather borders. The ocher brown leather upholstery could then be placed on this suspension. The falcon chair was originally made with a chrome frame, but in 1974 it was fitted with a lighter frame constructed from bent beech, which looked like rosewood through an intricate staining process. The matching footstool was produced with the same method.
