(Re)Making the S Chair

Born in Tom’s 80s London workshop our S Chair is the prequel to its sibling still produced in Italy by legendary furniture company Cappellini.

Re-engineered to take account of the latest developments in manufacturing technology, the original three-dimensional form is now moulded in an industrial hard/soft foam with a pure new wool cover; the instantly recognisable serpentine curves are now more comfortable and ergonomically active than ever.

It now sits proudly on its steering-wheel inspired cast iron base.

Existing in a multitude of historic versions in the permanent collections of Museums from the MOMA New York to the V&A London the exciting adventures of ‘S’ look set to continue into the distant future.

The S Chair is available in a wide range of colours, in fabric or leather. Please contact our customer services team for more information.
