Know before you buy
The seat shell is constructed from durable polyurethane, which provides a sturdy yet flexible structure that maintains the chair's iconic 'S' silhouette.
The chair is designed with a welcoming, ergonomic curve that supports the body. While it is a firm, structured piece rather than a plush lounge chair, its shape is engineered for comfortable, upright seating.
Yes, Extrema 45 is a high-quality synthetic leather chosen for its durability and ease of care. It can typically be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth, making it a practical choice for high-traffic living areas.
The Esse Armchair is delivered fully assembled. You will only need to unpack it and place it in your desired location.
The legs are finished with protective glides to prevent scratching. However, we always recommend using felt pads if you are placing the chair on delicate or high-gloss hardwood surfaces.
