What sets the “Triva” chair apart is the balance between form and function. The design emphasizes clean lines and a timeless style, making it a perfect addition to both modern and classic interiors. The chair features a minimalist frame made of wood and is highly comfortable.

The use of subtle brass details and attention to ergonomics make the “Triva” chair a hallmark of Scandinavian design. Bengt Ruda’s vision of simplicity and functionality is beautifully realized in this piece, which combines elegance with practicality. Whether enhancing a minimalist space or modernizing a classic interior, the “Triva” chair offers a timeless beauty that endures for years to come.

This set is upholstered in a 1950s-designed fabric by Charles and Ray Eames by Maharam.

Note, the brass accents on the sides are different for each chair.
