More about Erik Chambert
Erik Chambert was a designer and artist. Chambert worked throughout his long career primarily as a furniture architect in the family business Chamberts Möbelfabrik in Norrköping. Chambert gained recognition through exhibitions such as Stockholm 1930, Chicago 1933, Paris 1937, and New York 1939. During the 1940s and 50s, Chambert developed a personal style with more refined models. His furniture was often of high quality, considering his background as a carpenter. Some of Chambert's iconic pieces include the chair "Poem" and the cabinet "Livets Vägskål". He was also recognised as an artist with his abstract works during the 1950s and 60s.
