Black Leather Falcon Armchair by Sigurd Ressell

An icon of Norwegian modernism, the Falcon armchair by Sigurd Resell for Vatne Møbler is a masterclass in comfort-driven, sculptural design. This 1970s classic combines organic curves, floating form, and luxurious materials to create an instantly recognisable and highly collectable lounge chair.

The seat is suspended in a slung canvas cradle, supported by a distinctive bentwood beech frame. This particular model features a stained beach frame, creating a rich deep tone and feel to the design. The curved frame envelops the body, while the wonderful black leather cushions offer plush comfort and rich patina, adding a complementary warmth to the dark frame. This model, also slightly larger in size, features the signature armrests that were added to alternate iterations of the original design. 

With its refined silhouette, architectural balance, and signature sling design, the Falcon chair makes a bold statement from every angle. A true fusion of form and function, it is as much a sculptural object as it is a luxurious seat.
