Monroe Mid-Century Modern Fabric Chair
Introducing a premium reproduction of the 1962 Børge Mogensen #2211 in premium fabric upholstery. Like the original, the classic cube design of the Kardiel reproduction of the Mogensen 2211 features individually zippered back cushion that weighs in at whopping 5 lbs and side cushions weigh-in 6 lbs are filled with 100% down feathers encased in a soft silk form-fitting pouch. The signature side cushions are 100% dense formed foam designed to hold the consistent shape as the year's pass. The seat cushions feature a heavy multi-density foam core topped with a plush quilted down the pocket top layer. This premium feature combines soft to initial touch with a heavy, densely comfortable deeper seating experience.
Recreating the 1962 mid-century modern icon
Børge Mogensen created the original 2211 for his own home in Gentofte Denmark in 1962. This premium quality reproduction of the 2211 armchair features solid ash legs. The handcrafted hardwood frame is graciously lined with dense fitted polyurethane foam before being upholstered. The series feels solid to the touch. The upholstery consists of Vintage Tailored Twill. This premium fabric is the highest quality available and breathes naturally dissipating heat for comfortable extended seating. All seams and piping are hand-stitched. The seat platform is reinforced using a genuine no sag metal Sinuous Spring system.
This Kardiel reproduction takes the ingredients and details well beyond its price point. The difference is visible from the images but pales in comparison to the in-person seating experience. In this reproduction of the Mogensen 2211, you will find value in a quality crafted, comfortable, modernist icon that heirlooms gracefully over time.
ABOUT VINTAGE TAILORED TWILL
Twill is an interwoven knit fabric. The thread takes turns in an over and under weave forming a crooked yet overall lineal rectangle pattern that can be discerned at close range. The pattern exists but appears somewhat random when viewed from a normal distance. Vintage Tailored Twill features a finer, tightly tailored flat weave appearance.
Vintage Tailored Twill provides perhaps a more refined, tailored appearance than that of a typical coarse twill. It relies on the multi-tone nature of the fabric strands themselves to provide the appearance of depth of texture.
