Base finishes

The Isa Office Chair is the slimmest chair in this group: an armless, fully upholstered molded-plywood seat with ribbed stitching, just 17.5 in wide, on a gas-lift five-star base that swivels and tilts. It tucks fully under a desk, so it suits compact home offices, reception counters, training rooms and rows of workstations where space is tight. The seat height runs from 16 to 20 in. Choose a chrome, black, gold or aluminum base.

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.
