by AF 0408 g3 — February 15, 2010 — Davis Furniture Industries says its new Prime chair series has a feature that no other chair offers: ribbed veneer. The unusual surface adds visual interest, and also acts as a non-slip surface, providing a greater surface to grip when user is seated. The ribbing is actually pressed into the surface as the shell is formed. This version is available in oak or beech veneers only.
The sculptured wood frame takes on a concave/convex shape offering excellent comfort, says the company. The seating also has a waterfall front that ensures ergonomic comfort and optimizes blood circulation during long sitting sessions.
The structure of the supporting frame exudes lightness and clarity. Yet, the stringent horizontal structures and craftsmanship render the frame tough for large-scale environments such as cafeterias or training rooms. It is just as stylish in lounge areas with an upholstered seat and back.
The collection is offered in beech, maple or oak veneers, and white laminate. All may be ordered as arm or armless with no upholstery, seat pad only, or back and seat pad. The splayed design of the arms allows the user to sit comfortably because of the slight flex of the chair arms. Arm caps are high-impact black rubber.
As a low-density stacking chair, Prime chairs can stack eight high in veneer/laminate, or six high with upholstery. A cart is also available for easy transportation of stacked chairs.
