Designed by the husband-and-wife team Elsa and Nordahl Solheim and manufactured by Rybo Rykken, the "Kengu" easy chair pairs a beech frame with a loose cushion. Originally upholstered in brown leather, the cushions have since been reupholstered in boucle, lending a softer, more textural feel while preserving the chair's original silohoutte and proportions.

Three chairs available. 

CONDITION: Good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age throughout the frames, including scratches and marks that speak to years of use. Upholstery has been updated to boucle.

Chloe E. ★★★★★

The beech frame is surprisingly sturdy yet the chair doesn’t feel bulky at all in my small living room. I’ve been sitting in it every evening for a week and the leather cushion has already molded perfectly to my shape.

Evelyn ★★★★★

That loose cushion is the perfect balance of soft support and firmness, making long reading sessions incredibly comfortable. The beech frame gives it a light, airy look that fits nicely in my small apartment.

Emily S. ★★★★★

The beech frame feels wonderfully solid, and the chair has a nice mid-century silhouette that fits my living room perfectly. The loose cushion is supportive without being too firm, making it a great spot to curl up with a book.
