Pair of Caryngo Chairs by Carl Malmsten and Yngve Ekström
Sweden
1950s
Oak, saddle leather
23 1/2″ wide x 26 1/2″ deep x 30 1/4″ high (seat height 14″)
The Caryngo chair was a collaboration between the great Swedish designers Carl Malmsten and Yngve Ekström, for Ekström’s furniture manufacturing company Swedese. The original saddle leather is in beautiful vintage condition. We like the devilish profile of the ears, one of the few curves in the otherwise angular frame.
