Key features
The frame and backrest are made of solid beech and beech veneer, strong hardwood materials that age beautifully and add a natural, warm feel to the room.
Brown stained in layers and then clear lacquered for protection and wear resistance.
The seat is made of handwoven paper cord, a naturally cool, comfortable and resistant material, used for years in furniture making.
Smart wooden plugs (wedge dowels), enable easy assembly. Simply click the backrest into the frame.
All fittings are concealed once the chair is assembled.
Designed for a perfect match with SKANSNÄS tables.

A timeless dining experience
The 1950s and 60s were a real golden age in Scandinavian design history. For the tables and chairs in the SKANSNÄS series, we drew inspiration from the treasures in our own IKEA archive. But we made sure to add comfort and flexibility that suits today’s lifestyles. The result is a comfortable chair, and tables you easily extend in a matter of seconds, made so you can relax and enjoy small and large dinner parties for many years to come.
Designer Mikael Axelsson
”In the work with SKANSNÄS, I did a deep dive into our IKEA archive and drew inspiration from tables and chairs from the 1950s and 60s, which was a golden age for Scandinavian design. I like the simple and soft shapes and the natural materials they used. Materials that are beautiful from the start and develop a nice patina over time. I brought all of that with me, but I also wanted to add new knowledge about ergonomics and techniques to make furniture that suits our time.”
