Set of Two Safari Easy Chairs by Gerd Lange for Bofinger, 1960s

Discover this rare pair of ‘Safari’ easy chairs designed by Gerd Lange for Bofinger, Germany, dating from the 1960s. The design combines an architectural wooden structure with relaxed textile seating, offering a refined interpretation of the traditional safari chair. The frames are executed in dark-stained oak, with the pronounced natural grain remaining beautifully visible throughout. Exposed structural connections, projecting joints and elongated armrests emphasize the construction, while black metal fittings secure the suspended backrests and provide a subtle contrast to the warmth of the wood. Natural linen-toned textile forms the suspended seats and backrests, creating a relaxed seating position while maintaining the open and lightweight character of the design. The restrained palette of dark oak and natural fabric gives the chairs a particularly timeless appearance. Expressive from every angle, the chairs celebrate their construction rather than concealing it. The combination of dark-stained oak, textile and metal results in an elegant balance between architectural precision and informal comfort. The chairs remain in good vintage condition, showing traces of age and use consistent with their period. Priced and sold as a set of two pieces. Measurements: H 70 x W 65 x D 65 x Sh 37 cm
