Description
Well-known classic: Standard Chair by Vitra

The restrained design of the Standard chair by Vitra has made it a well-known classic. Jean Prouvé was driven by the realisation that the load of a chair is greatest on its back legs - so he developed the Standard and designed its back legs as voluminous hollow bodies that transfer the load to the floor.
The iconic chair is available in different types of wood and with different colours for the metal frame. Thus, it can be combined with different furnishing styles.
Jean Prouvé - French Design
Jean Prouvé called himself a constructor all his life, because he was designer and producer of his designs at the same time. From letter openers, lamps and furniture to prefabricated houses - the work of the French designer is particularly extensive and includes almost everything that can be constructed and industrially manufactured.
Material and format
The seat and backrest of the Standard chair are made of wood. There is a choice of natural oak, dark oak or walnut. The frame is made of formed, powder-coated sheet steel and round tubing. It is available in different colour variations. The design chair is 42 cm wide, 49 cm deep and 82 cm high. The seat height is 46.5 cm.
