Story
Officers and a softer seat
In 1948 the semi-upholstered Navy collection was first developed: US Navy officers, redeployed from warships to land based facilities, wanted more comfort than the 1006 aluminum chair gave.
Aluminum with upholstery
The frame is aluminum, lightweight and super strong, and the seat is upholstered. The metal is recycled and recyclable without limit, so the chair combines a long-lived material with a soft seat.
