Patricia Urquiola Kartell has fun revisiting a great classic and gives a new look to the Windsor chair A return to the glorious past of England in the XVIIIth century for a "Comb Back" version of the chair with an opaque texture featuring a backrest consisting of seven "teeth" which spread out towards the lumbar region where they meet a reinforced hexagonal rim with slim shafts radiating down to join the seat. A goodly size, this single mould chair embodies functionality and ergonomics well-freighted with sentiment and memories. The use of plastic and the use of pastel colours on offer give a touch of lightness and the contemporary to the Comback chair The Comback comes in several modernised versions – the “swivel” model with four spokes and a central swivel shaft and the “sled” with two slim tubular sides. height seat

Patricia Urquiola The revisitation of this great classic inspired by the Windsor style entails experimentation and the combination of different materials such as plastic and wood which are interpreted winningly in a country chic "wood" version with four oak-stained or painted ash wood legs and “rockers”. A recollection of tradition and ancient emotions, reminiscent of the chairs gracing the verandas of colonial homes or the more familiar and nostalgic chairs of our grandmothers. 5954 Four wooden legs seat/rocking chair height seat
