The Aviator Tomcat chair takes its cue from military aviation
history, inspired by the twin-cockpit seats of the F-14 Tomcat
which was deployed by the U.S. Navy for some of its most prolific
missions in the 1970s. The chair's aerodynamic curves are hugged in
riveted aluminum, inspired by the World War II British Supermarine
Spitfire, put through a five-stage process to distress the metal
and create the unique Spitfire finish. The seat and back are
swathed in ribbed leather, distressed by hand to emulate the
worn-down softness of a vintage bomber jacket. Please note, the
Spitfire finish features surface distress variations, which may
vary from piece to piece.
An original design by Timothy Oulton, The Aviator Tomcat chair
was the winner of the Luxuria Award for Most Innovative Product
Design in 2010. Daring yet timeless, it's one of our most iconic
designs.
Great experience here, the staff were super super helpful.
