Vintage Design
Scandinavian stick chair “Mademoiselle” designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara for Edsby Verken in 1956, made in Sweden.
“Mademoiselle” chair is one the most iconic chairs designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara. The Lounge Chair is made from solid birch and was specifically developed for the home. The spoke back contrasts strikingly with the smooth modernist curves of the seat’s softly rounded edge. In creating the Mademoiselle, designer Ilmari Tapiovaara drew inspiration from traditional Finnish chairs, then applied his own modern design approach.
Chairs are still in production by Artek nowadays and are crafted using an age-old construction method.
