What Walter Knoll highlights

  • Classic-car lines

    Walter Knoll calls the chair a homage to the seats of classic cars. A slim shell holds the seat and arms, with piping stitched along the upholstery.

  • Wide armrests

    The upholstered arms are wide enough for a tablet or phone. They are die-cast aluminium with a foam pad, and sliding arms cost extra.

  • Swivel base

    A 4-star swivel base without a gas spring carries the chair. An auto-return mechanism is available for a surcharge.

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