in case you find the Ikea catalog irresistible as of late, you will have to see what they have been making 60 years in the past: high-again Victorian seats, graceful papasan chairs, and, after all, a number of the casually stylish midcentury brand new stuff that we all know so smartly from Mad males. Now, Ikea is reintroducing 26 different seats, sofas, rugs, lamps, and dishes from the 1950s to the Nineteen Seventies. It’s referred to as the Årgång assortment. It’s handiest available for a restricted time.
And the objects can handiest be purchased in-person at choose shops (Ikea recommends calling prematurely).
 
 
 

 
 
There are some great-looking finds in the collection. along the lines of midcentury brand new, the Ekenäset chair runs $200 and seems to be the crown jewel of the collection (hunt round any modern furniture store and the identical factor will cost you two to four instances as a lot). those looking for something extra funky will to find the whole lot from round chairs to the purple glass Gårdskär pendant lamp. The Årgång collection is available now. We’re now not seeing a U.S. site for it but, however if you don’t thoughts the translations, that you could see extra here.
