Bengt Ruda Triva Armchair Model 562-026 for Nordiska Kompaniet

Armchair model 562-026 from the Triva series, designed by Bengt Ruda for Nordiska Kompaniet in Sweden.

This chair has the clean and practical character that made Scandinavian design from this period so successful. The beech frame keeps the look light and simple, while the upholstered seat and back provide comfortable everyday seating.

The proportions are compact without feeling small, making it easy to use as a dining chair, desk chair, or occasional chair. The design is straightforward and functional, but there is enough detail in the frame to give it a warm and inviting appearance.

Width is approximately 22.4 inches, seat height approximately 16.9 inches, height around 29.1–29.9 inches, and depth approximately 19.7–21.7 inches.

Condition is renovated vintage. The frame has been restored and shows some signs of age and use consistent with a vintage piece. Overall, it presents well and remains solid and ready for use.

What we like about it is the balance between simplicity and comfort. It’s an understated design that works easily in a wide range of interiors without drawing too much attention to itself.

As with all vintage pieces, signs of use are part of the story. Colors can look slightly different depending on the light. If you'd like more photos or details, just let me know.
