Seat upholstery. The Falcon seat comes in five PPM-S colors (a silicone-finish performance leatherette) or two Camira Blazer wool fabrics. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Leg finishes

Falcon Galata is the most architectural of the Falcon stools: four slender tubular steel legs joined by a low steel footrest. It is a fixed, non-swiveling stool, which makes it steady and quiet for restaurant counters and for kitchens where kids climb up and down. Black is the value choice and disappears against dark cabinetry; chrome and brass dress it up for a hotel bar or a jewel-box kitchen. Plastic glides are fitted into each leg to protect hard floors.

Care

Wipe faux leather and PPM with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry. Vacuum fabric seats regularly and blot spills right away. Wipe the metal base with a soft, dry cloth; skip abrasive pads and harsh cleaners, which dull plated and powder-coated finishes. Leather and fabric vary slightly in shade from batch to batch.
