Pair of Mid-Century BKF Butterfly Chairs with Canvas Slings in Two-Tone Blue

Annihilate the landfill, sink into mid-century genius instead of buying new patio junk

The Hardoy Butterfly Chair — designed in 1938 Buenos Aires, knocked off by everyone, still unbeatable. Here's a pair with steel rod frames and heavy canvas slings in complementary blues: one deep royal, one sun-faded sky. These are mid-century examples with the classic bent rod construction and proper pocket corners. The lighter sling shows honest UV fade and some soiling — this is vintage canvas that's lived. Frames are solid with expected patina. Perfect for a reading nook, covered porch, or that corner that needs sculptural seating.

The D'Beetle Difference • Iconic 1938 Argentine Design: The BKF/Hardoy/Butterfly chair predates most mid-century icons. Bent steel rod frame creates that unmistakable silhouette — form following function before it was a cliché.

• Heavy Canvas Slings, Two Blues: Sturdy twill-weave canvas with reinforced seams at stress points. Seat height approximately 15 inches. One deeper blue, one lighter — honest fade adds character.

• Frames Built To Last: Welded steel rod construction with triangulated base for stability. Some surface oxidation consistent with age, structurally sound. Standard butterfly dimensions: roughly 35"H overall.
