What Walter Knoll highlights

  • 1957 design

    Walter Knoll says the small armchairs were created in 1957, with an aperitif or conversation in the lounge in mind.

  • Upholstered build

    The seat is a wooden construction with strapping and a cold-cure foam layer; the back is steel, foam-moulded. Both have an outer layer of wadding.

  • Oiled solid wood legs

    The legs are oiled solid wood in several oak and nutwood finishes. Walter Knoll notes that grain and colour vary from leg to leg.

As described by Walter Knoll on its official pages; not a Chairpedia assessment.
