The concept of the swivel chair giroflex 656 integrates three different back heights. The fabric-coated back section is supported by a narrow frame, which statically connects the die-cast aluminium element to its mechanical counterpart. The seat base receives its characteristic appearance through a V-shaped frame, featuring an effect that is both functional and aesthetic. Together with the high and exclusive 5-arm base, these metal parts define the systematic design of the chair and lend it a delicate but also distinctive look. The chair proves flexible through a range of technical elements: the new shiftmove synchronised mechanism, for example, enables an adjustment range of 45 to 120 kg in eight precise steps and is thus easily adapted to most users. The die-cast aluminium armrest supports are tapered to provide a sharply inclined surface for the height-adjustable armrests. The cushion fabric is available in leather and other high-quality fabrics. To cater to the taste of all customers, all aluminium parts are available in both polished and coated variants.
