The 675 Armchair is one of the 20th century's most iconic creations. Conceived by British furniture designer Robin Day in 1952, this masterpiece is celebrated for its distinctive curved plywood back—a testament to Day's innovative spirit and pioneering approach. Day masterfully transcended the technical limitations of his era, bestowing upon the world a creation of seamless grace and fluidity.

In a testament to its enduring legacy, Case Furniture, in close partnership with the Robin and Lucienne Day Foundation, embarked on a meticulous journey of revival. The reimagined 2014 rendition of the 675 Chair not only pays homage to its historical significance but also resurrects the original's meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. This collaboration has ensured that the quintessence of the 1952 archetype—a harmonious blend of aesthetic sophistication and functional brilliance—continues to inspire and captivate discerning aficionados and design connoisseurs alike.
Curved Back And Armrests

Pioneering at the time, Robin Day overcame the difficulty of forming a single moulded plywood chair with armrests, by creating a fluid shape using a singular curve.

An Iconic Silhouette In A Range Of Finishes

The 675 Chair comes in a range of neutral tones and warm wood finishes to highlight the elegant lines and form of the chair.

Craftsmanship
Craftsmen manufacture this product and there is variety between each unit. This is because wood is a natural product, with natural colour and grain variations.
Material Notes
Natural timber is affected by sunlight; this can the wood colour to darken. For this reason (especially if placed in direct sunlight) it is recommended that placing objects in the same position for long periods of time is avoided. This potential colour adjustment becomes less relevant as the product ages.
