emeco navy armchair with wood seat
The classic aluminum chair has been in continuous production since the mid 1940's by Emeco. Based on a marriage of style and a time honored proprietary 77 step process, Emeco can be considered the guardian of a lost art...the manufacture of something enduring and endearing. Three times stronger than steel and amazingly lightweight, these chairs have a life expectancy of at least 150 years. Timeless. Chairs admired today - and indefinitely. Chairs that span generations and cultures.
The 1006 is a bona fide wartime workhorse. It was developed in Hanover, Pa., in the 1940s for use on submarines and aircraft carriers. Aluminum makes the chair lightweight and corrosion-resistant. An elaborate manufacturing process makes it virtually indestructible. The military remains a customer, but today the 1006 is also a symbol of modern industrial chic.
The Emeco navy chairs feature recycled aluminum in a brushed or hand-polished finish. The chairs come standard with soft plastic (TPU) glides but can also be specified with other options. The carved solid wood seat is offered in a variety of wood options with a natural finish.
