This chair has been in production since the mid 1940’s and still looks timely.


Design Emeco, 1944.
Thermal treated aluminum.
Made in USA by Emeco
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 Navy Swivel chair is upholstered in black vinyl and offers swivel/tilt, tension and pneumatic height adjustment. — from Hive Modern
