Chairs - C1 Reclining Chair

C1 Reclining Chair
C1 Reclining Chair

The first of the Trannon Range of steam bent ash chairs. Designed in 1978, modified in 1981 and looking as fresh today as it did then. The C1 was an instant hit. It was purchased early on by the V&A who recognised the significance of its design, followed by numerous other collections.

For all its critical acclaim this is, like all Trannon pieces, essentially a practical chair. It has 3 seating positions, from conversational to snooze mode and folds flat. The rattan battens provide supple support making it exceptionally comfortable.

There are two versions; Plain Rattan or Upholstered, with or without foot stool. Upholstery is removable and reversible.

Arms are shock absorbing, webbing stiffened with rattan.

Retention cord is adjusted with a turned boxwood toggle.

This chair is not in regular production, please contact us for availability.
