Sofa sourced and restored in-home.
Our seats are made of hides and furs. These are living materials that evolve over time. Hide is a naturally impermeable material which makes it very easy to clean.
Vacuuming your seat regularly. If stained, scrub the area with cold water only, without detergent or washing powder, you will risk changing the integrity of our products.
If your furniture has deteriorated, our workshop is able to respond to your request for your product repair and restoration. We invite you to contact our sales department.
Paying attention to where you place your seat will contribute to its longevity. It should be protected from damp and prolonged exposure to light.
Choose natural colours if you are exposed to strong sunlight, especially in the mountains, as they do not fade. If you opt for tinted skins, install anti-UV filters on the windows.
However, our tinted hides may lose colour saturation and fade slightly over time.
Erik Bertil Karlén: A Pioneer of Scandinavian Design
Erik Bertil Karlén was a renowned Swedish designer known for his functional and elegant approach to furniture design. His creations, often characterized by clean lines and organic shapes, embody the essence of mid-century Scandinavian design.
Karlén founded his own workshop, Firma Rumsinteriör, where he could fully express his vision. His chairs, in particular, became design icons, valued for their comfort and timeless aesthetic. One of his most famous pieces is the "Curved Easy Chair," a chair with generous curves that perfectly contour to the body.
