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 Plywood sets the upholstered Tribeca shell on a four-leg base of bent plywood, a clean Scandinavian frame that keeps the chair light and the look warm. It is the most affordable wood base in the Tribeca range and is rated for 350 lb, so it works as an everyday dining chair at home and in cafes. Choose natural, wenge or American walnut veneer, and add the memory swivel if you want the seat to turn and return to face the table. The shell is sprung: S-shaped springs on a steel frame, padded with 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. Dust the wood with a dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Wood, leather and fabric vary naturally in grain and shade from piece to piece.
