Seat upholstery. Faux leather is the entry option. PPM and PPM-FR are polyurethane performance leathers, Camira Era is a woven contract fabric, the off-white boucle is a soft extra-loop weave, and Camira Blazer is a wool contract fabric. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Leg finishes

The Tribeca MW combines metal and wood: four splayed steel legs, finished in black, stainless steel or a natural or walnut wood veneer, braced underneath by a thin wire cross frame in the Eiffel tradition. The brace keeps the legs rigid for daily commercial use while the base still reads light and open. Add the memory swivel for a seat that turns and returns to face the table. The Tribeca shell itself is a steel frame with S-shaped springs and 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.

Frequently asked questions

What does MW mean?

MW is the maker's name for this metal-and-wire leg design: steel legs braced by a wire frame, offered in metal or wood veneer finishes.

Are the veneer legs solid wood?

No. The natural and walnut options are wood veneer over steel legs, so they look like wood but keep the strength of metal.

Can it swivel?

Yes, with the optional memory swivel. It turns, then returns to face the table, and raises the seat by 1 in.

How much weight does it hold?

It is rated for 300 lb.

Why do the prices differ?

Faux leather seats cost the least, PPM, PPM-FR, Camira Era and boucle are the middle tier, and Camira Blazer wool is the top tier. The memory swivel adds a small surcharge; all four leg finishes cost the same.

Which finish is best for a restaurant?

Stainless steel and black stand up best to daily cleaning and kicks; veneer suits quieter dining rooms.
