BassamFellows SPINDLE Steel and wood chair with armrests

Spindle is a chair with a carved, solid wood seat and back and a nanoceramic coated solid steel base and spindles.‎ Materials: Carved solid Walnut, Oak, Ash or Ebonized Ash.‎ Base Options: Satin Nickel, Bronze, Satin Brass, Gunmetal nanoceramic coated solid steel rod.‎The chair includes a return swivel for ease of use.‎ Optional seat cushion available.‎ Since its release, the Spindle Chair’s distinctive silhouette has appeared in a vast array of celebrated commercial and residential interiors.‎ The phenomenally successful piece was inspired by a visit to Louis Kahn’s Exeter Library.‎ Designer Craig Bassam’s imagination was ignited when he noticed the traditional utilitarian chair juxtaposed against the powerful geometry of Kahn’s building.‎ Seduced by its elemental simplicity, Bassam realized an updated spindle back chair would fit perfectly within the BassamFellows ‘Craftsman Modern’ aesthetic.‎ The BassamFellows Spindle Chair offers a new take on the classic piece, a descendent of the classic English Windsor Chair.‎ One first notices its weightless quality, which Bassam achieved by using metal for the chair’s legs and spindles, giving the illusion of two floating surfaces.‎ This contemporary reboot makes the spindles less prominent, evoking a less rustic, 21st century setting for the chair.‎ A counterpoint to the metal spindles is the chair’s timber elements, including an ultra-comfortable ergonomic seat carved from solid wood.‎ Given its updated minimal silhouette, ultra-light materiality and concern for comfort, it’s the kind of chair you can envision in many contexts.‎ The Spindle Collection includes counter and barstool formats.‎ The weightless looking Spindle Counter and Bar Stools possess robust metal legs complemented by a low-back wooden backrest and an ultra-comfortable ergonomic seat carved from solid wood.‎ Ideal for work or play, the Spindle Counter and Bar Stools elevate a modern essential.‎ The Spindle Counter and Bar Chairs recast their predecessor’s dimensions in modern, highly comfortable counter and bar heights.‎ Once again, the illusion of two floating surfaces has been created by the use of metal for the chair’s legs and spindles and an elegantly carved backrest and armrest.‎ Both versions feature commercial grade swivel returns, giving them broad application for a range of settings, including high traffic hospitality environments.‎   Whether it’s a chair, counter or bar stool, the BassamFellows Spindle Collection is distinguished by its seductive, elemental simplicity.‎ Further info from manufacturer on SPINDLE BassamFellows
