AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

I am offering for sale this rare, original pair of Verner Panton 1-2-3 Series Easy Chairs from the 1970s.
These chairs capture everything that makes Danish avant-garde design so exciting: bold, sculptural lines combined with surprising comfort and a touch of futuristic elegance.

For me, Verner Panton has always been one of those designers who dared to break the rules while still creating pieces that feel inviting, comfortable, and distinctly luxurious. His work blends innovation, form, comfort, and a hint of the future, and this pair expresses that spirit beautifully.
Their value is not only preserved but continues to increase, as original Panton pieces are sought after worldwide.

Exceptional New Upholstery – from Early Mira-X Stock

A particularly special feature of this set is the upholstery: the fabric used to reupholster the chairs comes from early stock of Mira-X, a textile brand closely associated with Verner Panton’s work.

Mira-X is internationally known for its innovative interior textiles, and Panton collaborated with them on several iconic projects during the 1960s and 70s. Their fabrics are typically PES-based (such as Trevira CS), naturally flame-retardant and easy to clean, making them ideal for high-quality furniture.

This connection adds not only aesthetic value, but also historical and collector significance to the chairs — a small but genuine piece of design history.

Condition

The chrome bases and frames are in good vintage condition with light patina consistent with age.

The upholstery is brand-new, flawless, and premium Mira-X quality, with a soft, pleasant texture.

The chairs are very comfortable and suitable for long, relaxed seating.

Why this pair is special

Iconic Verner Panton design – the 1-2-3 Series is among his most celebrated and collectible works.

Original 1970s production, professionally reupholstered.

Upholstered with rare early Mira-X stock, a textile brand Panton himself collaborated with.

A strong investment – the value of original Panton pieces continues to rise worldwide.

A striking design feature for any interior, from mid-century to contemporary.
