Carl Cederholm, a Swedish Modern asymmetrical armchair, Stil & Form Stockholm 1940s.

Secondary upholstery in eggshell coloured fabric. Height 80 cm, seat height ca 41 cm, width ca 87 cm.
Carl Cederholm (b. 1909) graduated from HKS, Tekniska Skolan, (now Konstfack), in 1940 after three years of study. Shortly thereafter, Firma Stil & Form was established. The firm soon became a well-known name within Stockholm's well-established circles. The store was located on Sturegatan 36 in Stockholm, not far from Greta Magnusson Grossman's former store Studio.

Carl Cederholm's design is characterized by an organic and asymmetrical style, sometimes including exclusive silver inlays. Among the most important of the company's interior design projects is the Central Hotel in Gävle (1947).

Despite a certain impact in bourgeois circles, Cederholm's Stil & Form furniture and fixtures were not made in any major editions.
