Robin Day Model 675 Desk Armchair in Plywood and Striped Kilim, 1950s

€1,450.00

An elegant example of British mid-century modern design, this Model 675 desk chair was designed by Robin Day in the 1950s.

The chair features its characteristic sculptural moulded plywood backrest, which flows seamlessly into the integrated armrests. The warm wood tones contrast beautifully with the slender black tubular steel frame, creating a light and architectural silhouette.

The upholstered seat has been finished in a beautiful kilim textile, featuring a natural cream background with fine black stripes and contrasting red piping. This distinctive combination adds warmth and character to the chair while complementing its original mid-century design.

The Model 675 is celebrated for its innovative use of moulded plywood and its combination of functionality, comfort and elegant proportions. Its compact dimensions make it particularly suitable as a desk chair, occasional chair or accent piece.

Condition:

Good vintage condition, with signs of age and use consistent with its period. The wooden backrest and armrests show some surface scratches, marks and patina. The black metal frame displays minor signs of wear. The kilim upholstery is in good condition.

A beautiful and functional piece of British design history, combining Robin Day's timeless aesthetic with a distinctive textile finish.
