Product Information
Description
A new, improved, updated version of the iconic A.B.C armchair produced in 1996. With a metal base, and padding in expanded polyurethane, covered in leather or fabric available from the Flexform collection. The metal armrest of the A.B.C design has been removed to create a softer appearance. The chair features a sophisticated mechanism that slides the seat forward to maximise comfort. The low seat that rests on the ground gives it a contemporary flair, along with the enveloping cushions. The Osservatorio Permanente del Design has selected A.B.C.D. for the ADI Design Index 2015, the prestigious nomination for the Compasso d’Oro Award 2016.Need a second opinion?Our design experts can assist with everything from swatches to sizing to pricing. -

Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
