We are pleased to offer an elegant Knoll Pollock Arm Chairs with cognac leather sling and black seat. This spare and very comfortable chair was recently re-introduced by Knoll, and new chairs sell for $2,730 each. This is a wonderful opportunity to own an actual vintage 1971 chair at a fraction of that price.
(Please note that the black chair shown has been sold and one cognac chair remains available.)
Designed by Charles Pollock in 1960 and originally manufactured from 1964-79, the steel and leather ‘sling chair’ or '657', as it is commonly called, offers a refined combination of materials and finishes. The chair’s spare frame is polished chrome steel tubing and cast aluminum with a black-fused finish, producing a sleek and subtly contrasting profile. Heavy natural cowhide, carefully shaped to form the back and seat sling, is suspended on the frame. A glove-soft capeskin seat pad provides additional support and comfort.
Our chairs are in good vintage condition. The two shown here are representative of the overall condition of the collection. There is finish wear on the arms, some nicks and scratches on the leather, and a couple of missing end caps. All chairs are structurally sound, with wonderful leather patina, and truly comfortable!
