Alva chair with armrests is a development of Alva 074 that was launched in 2017. The chair is made in ash and has an armrest in solid steel that wraps itself around the back in a playful way and then attached to underneath the seat in a nice and suddle way. The thin dimensions of the armrests gives the chair a clean and neat expression.
Alva is an elegant and neat design. The designer Jonas Osslund aimed at designing a classical wooden chair but with a modern twist. The craftmanship is at its best and so is the seating comfort. When you lean back the back flexes and forms itself according to your body. This is a nice detail that makes the chair unique and its construction also adds to the design. Alva is our first product in ash and the grain of the wood makes the chair vibrant and trendy.
The chair is available in wooden seat and fixed upholstered seat. Alva is also available without armrests with a separate article number.
Alva meets the Möbelfakta standards, which makes it a very good choice.
Alva is available as clear lacquered or as stained. The metal armrests are black as standard and as an option you can have the armrests wrapped with brown leather from the Swedish tannery Tärnshö Garveri.
The chair is available in a fabric of your choice, but if you would like some tips, please check out our fabric guide.

Care instructions for this piece of furniture
Wood is a living material whose grain has a natural variation in pattern, hue and lustre from the start. The wood is affected for example by humidity, temperature and season. Due to the fact that wood is a living material it means:
- Screws need to be tightened regularly, at least once a year.
- Massive tabletops might need to settle with up to 0.5% depending on the surroundings.
- Light from lamps and sunshine have a certain effect on the colour and lightness of the wood surface, so please let the same amount of light expose the whole surface.
To take care of the environment we lacquer a big part of our products with water-based products. This means:
- Spill of coffee or other liquids must be wiped off immediately.
- Please clean the surface with washing-up liquid or mild pH neutral cleanser and lukewarm water, wipe with clean water and wipe dry. Do not use cleaning agents which are alkaline, aggressive, contains abrasives or solvents.
- For disinfection non-alcohol based agents are recommended, such as Virkon or DAX Alco Free. Alcohol based agents should not be used.
- Please wash removable and washable fabrics according to washing instructions. These have been sewn with allowance for shrinkage, so please wash before use for optimal fit.
- Vacuum cleaning with a soft nozzle is generally sufficient for cleaning fabrics.
- Spots should always be removed as quickly as possible. In most cases, it is sufficient to wipe with a cloth dampened with distilled water. For more difficult spots, use a pH-neutral washing-up liquid or a foaming detergent for professional use.
- Always use white cloths and avoid dampening woollen fabrics, as woollen fabrics risk leaving spots behind.
- A foaming detergent can also be used for more thorough cleaning, assuming this is permitted by the fabric’s specification.
- For normal cleaning, please use a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaning agent without solvents or abrasives.
- For badly soiled surfaces, please use an alcohol-based cleaner and a damp cloth.
- Alcohol based agents can be used to disinfect if it is wiped dry with a cloth afterwards.
