Set of four 'Birka' chairs by Axel Einar Hjorth for Nordiska Kompaniet, 1930s

A refined set of four dining chairs from the “Birka” series, designed by Axel Einar Hjorth for Nordiska Kompaniet in the 1930s. Crafted in ash and beech, with elegantly curved backrests and upholstered seats, these chairs embody Hjorth’s balance of functional modernism – a style that today is known as Swedish or Scandinavian modern.

With their sculptural silhouettes and harmonious proportions, the “Birka” chairs reflect the designer’s pursuit of both comfort and sophistication, making them an ideal choice for collectors and interiors with a taste for classic Nordic design.
