In this version, the Vitra Aluminum Chair EA 117 presents fine leather on a slender, iconic aluminum structure. The seat and backrest are designed as a stretched membrane, which creates a characteristic sitting sensation between stability and flexibility, while the leather offers a prestigious appearance with the potential to develop a beautiful patina. For everyday use, the chair supports the user with infinitely variable height adjustment and a backrest tilt mechanism that allows the resistance to be adjusted to the user's weight without locking. This means that movements remain natural and the back is noticeably relieved. Careful workmanship, smooth running properties and the timeless Eames design language make the EA 117 a confident choice for desks and meeting rooms.
