A pair of gently rocking armchairs by Lamitech Furniture, produced in Dry Creek, South Australia.

Often associated with renowned designer Joe Rufenacht, whose own factory operated nearby in the Barossa Valley, these chairs likely bear the mark of his design influence.

They feature quality salmon-coloured Howe leather upholstery, paired with elegant bentwood frames—a hallmark of the Danish-inspired style that defined the era.

Oh, and did I mention they’re super comfy? The gentle rocking motion and ergonomic design make them as relaxing as they are stylish. A true blend of mid-century craftsmanship and everyday comfort.

Item Details

Age: 1960s-1970s

Background:Lamitech was a prominent South Australian furniture company known for its innovative designs during the mid-20th century. Established in the 1960s, Lamitech became a key player in the local furniture industry, producing high-quality, Danish-inspired pieces that combined functional design with stylish aesthetics. The company’s distinctive use of bentwood frames, quality leather upholstery, and minimalist forms reflected the influence of Scandinavian design trends. With its factory based in Dry Creek, South Australia, Lamitech’s pieces gained recognition for their craftsmanship and are now considered highly collectible. Many of its iconic designs are still sought after today, especially those associated with designer Joe Rufenacht, whose nearby Barossa Valley workshop likely influenced the company’s distinctive style.

Condition:Good vintage condition with signs of use. The leather has been cleaned and conditioned—there are no rips or cracks, though some gentle wear is visible, consistent with age. The canvas is in very good condition, showing minimal signs of use.
