An original retro award winning Hille Supporto Chair in red by Frederick Scott for sale - £150 each
A very comfortable and visually striking, real collectable design classic. They have hydraulic adjustable height mechanism, and a hydraulic back support system. The 5 metal legs at the base all have working castors for ease of movement. New these chairs can cost in excess of £1,000+!
They make brilliant office or studio chairs. As is quite common with this type of chair from this era, the plastic coating on the beautiful cast aluminium has a few age/use related marks or scratches on the surface of the plastic, and also small areas where the plastic coating has peeled off and is missing.
I love the way they look now as they are fully functional and have a wonderful aged look of authenticity about them. However, depending upon what you wanted to do, these could either be re-finished, or I was thinking that they would look totally amazing if the plastic coating on the arms were fully stripped and the aluminium arms underneath where then mirror polished!
I have a selection of these, most where the fabric is in great condition, and a couple where the fabric would need replacing on the seat.
Dimensions:
width: 460mm
height: 990mm
depth: 420mm
seat height: 580mm
