Spectacular Reclining Model MS20 Lounge Chair Set by Madsen & Schubell - $3,650 (ON HOLD)

October 17, 2021

Wow! This beautiful reclining highback lounge chair with ottoman was designed by renowned Danish design team of Ib Madsen and Acton Schubell in the late 1950s and retailed by Povl Dinesen (marked on ottoman). Sometimes referred to as the ‘Tove Chair’, this set has an incredible presence in the room and it is astonishingly comfortable. This is the rare reclining version, made by Madsen & Schubell’s own workshop in Denmark rather than the Dutch company who made the standard version. The flared back and sculptural arms are so beautiful!

These pieces are in excellent vintage condition. The solid afrormosia wood frame shows very little wear. There are minor scratches on the arms as shown. The reclining mechanism is easy and smooth to operate. The matching ottoman has a tilt function to match the chair when reclined. This chair was reupholstered at some point and the current foam and fabric are in very good condition, with one broken webbing support that does not affect functionality or comfort. Reupholstery may be available at additional cost, please inquire.
