DescriptionDescription: Compared to Mies van der Rohe’s grandiose tubular steel armchair, the chair by architect Sven Markelius is unassuming and substantial. It was serial produced for, among others, Enhetsprisaktiebolaget EPA’s bars, which were unostentatious diners adjacent to EPA’s low-price department stores.
