Know before you buy
No, the Italian leather upholstery is permanently attached to the fiberglass-reinforced shell. It is designed to maintain a sleek, tailored fit that follows the chair's iconic sculptural silhouette.
The chair comes equipped with plastic glides on the sled base specifically designed to protect floor surfaces. However, we always recommend using a rug or felt pads if you are concerned about long-term wear on delicate flooring.
The leather-covered version offers a softer, more cushioned seating experience compared to the bare wire model. The fiberglass-reinforced shell provides a supportive structure, while the leather upholstery adds a layer of tactile comfort suitable for longer dining sessions.
No, this specific model is intended for indoor use only. The leather upholstery and construction materials are not weather-resistant and should be kept away from moisture and direct sunlight.
The polished chrome finish offers a bright, reflective, and classic mid-century look. The bonded powder coat finish provides a matte, more uniform appearance that is highly durable and resistant to chips and scratches.
The Knoll Harry Bertoia Side Chair arrives fully assembled and ready for use. You will only need to unpack it and place it in your desired location.
