Beginning with the Legs

George Nelson began with the legs, insisting that they be made of metal, machine formed, and prefinished. And beautiful. The delicate look of the legs he designed belies the strength of the base.

The chair shell recalls a familiar form. With permission, Nelson borrowed the patented process for molding plastic that Charles and Ray Eames had developed. But he added a twist. He created separate seat and back shells and then glued them together. The result is a sculptural shape that fits the body and provides a bit of give. Placed at a desk or work table or around tables in dining areas, this chair fits today's homes and offices perfectly.

Chrome

For normal cleaning, wet cheesecloth in a nonabrasive cleaner, like liquid dish soap, and rub the chrome component lightly until the original luster reappears. Dry the component with a soft cloth to remove any soap residue.

Coated Metal

For normal cleaning, wash coated metal surfaces with a soft cloth soaked in detergent and warm water; rinse thoroughly and dry. Remove scuff marks from low-gloss coatings with pre-softened paste wax, following the manufacturer's instructions. Remove scuff marks and scratches from high-gloss coatings using automotive polishing compounds, either liquid or paste. After polishing, apply a pre-softened automotive paste wax to restore original sheen.
