Mid-Century Noboru Nakamura Lounge Chair & Footstool – Rare 1970s Leather, Chrome Frame, IKEA Sweden

An exceptionally rare and iconic mid-century lounge chair by Noboru Nakamura, designed for IKEA Sweden in the 1970s. This elegant set includes the original chair with button-tufted chocolate brown leather and a matching ‘Bore’ footstool, both featuring lightly chromed tubular frames, removable leather cushions, and Ferrari-embossed casters for easy mobility.

This design is a true collector’s gem: few examples of this model have survived in such pristine condition. Confirmed by the IKEA Museum, it is a Noboru Nakamura original—not a Bruno Mathsson piece—as evidenced by the Swedish catalog included in the photos. The chair offers exceptional comfort, combining stylish sophistication with functional design, making it a standout addition to any mid-century modern interior.
