Seat upholstery. Faux leather is the entry seat. PPM and PPM-FR are polyurethane performance leathers, nubuck is a soft brushed fabric and the off-white boucle is a looped fabric. Camira Era is a woven contract fabric, Camira Blazer is a wool cloth, and the caramel option is full-grain Italian leather. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Leg finishes

Gazel Cross gives the Gazel shell four slim steel tubes joined by a crossed stretcher under the seat, a clean and sturdy base that works as well in a cafe as at home. Choose polished stainless steel for a bright, reflective look or black painted steel to let the upholstery take the lead. The thin tubes keep sight lines open around the table, and the cross brace keeps the frame rigid under daily use. Inside the seat is a steel frame with S-shaped springs set in molded polyurethane foam.

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.

Does it come with floor glides?

The legs end in glides that protect hard floors. Add felt pads for delicate wood.
