Apollo Chair and Ottoman by Svend Skipper for Skippers Mobler
About the Item
Apollo chair by Svend Skipper for Skippers Mobler, and ottoman.
Ottoman 22" wide x 19" deep x 13.5" high
This 'Apollo' model easy chair is made of a black bent plywood frame and black leather upholstery. Produced by Skippers Furniture in Denmark during the 1970s, the piece looks similar to the “Kroken” chair designed by Ake Fribytter by Nelo. The chair is in good vintage condition, with some wear and tear commensurate with age and use.
Modern Danish design easy chair with bucket seat and ottoman with natural black leather upholstery.
The bucket style hammock seat is suspended from the beech frame and will adapt to the shape of each person sitting. You will feel almost enveloped by the chair.
This combined flexibility is also added by the flex in the laminated beech frame which gives the chair a slight bounce.
The chair cushion is fully upholstered in natural black colored leather which is stitched with black cord to blend with the leather.

Set of Milo Baughman Biedermeier Lounge Chairs for Thayer Coggin
By Milo Baughman, Thayer Coggin
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This Biedermeier 90 collection, Milo Baughman did with Thayer Coggin in the is one of the last collections Milo and Coggin did together in the 1990's. Milo Baughman believed the midcentury style needed to be warmed up a bit.
For admirers of Biedermeier furniture, the neoclassical style that flourished in Austria and Germany from 1815-1830, the choices are few: scarce and expensive antique pieces and now, Milo Baughman's Biedermeier 90 collection for Thayer Coggin, a furniture maker in High Point, N.C.
''When I teach the history of modern design, I start with Biedermeier, because it's the first indication that there would be a new philosophy in design, furniture designed to be more honest and simple,'' said Mr. Baughman, who has designed furniture for Thayer Coggin since 1953 and also teaches design at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.
The 27-piece collection, which includes consoles, tables and upholstered seating, captures the spirit of Biedermeier design with honey-colored wood veneers, neoclassical fluted columns and natural steel finishes.
- Ref NYTIMES, 8/10/1989
“Eurostyle started out as a fairly valid design statement,” says Milo Baughman, a highly regarded veteran furniture designer who teaches at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. ''But when it was reduced to more commercial levels and picked up too quickly by people who make cheap furniture...
