Seat upholstery. The Polo seat is offered in PPM, a polyurethane performance leather, and in Camira Era, a woven contract fabric. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Base finishes

The Polo Sled sets the Polo seat on a continuous loop of solid steel that runs along the floor on each side, so the chair slides smoothly over rugs and carpet instead of catching on four leg tips. That makes it a comfortable choice for dining rooms with area rugs, conference rooms and restaurant banquette tables. The sled comes in chrome, stainless steel or brass gold. The seat is a sprung steel frame in injected foam with a flexible back, finished in a removable Velcro slipcover.

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.
