Pollock Armchair
Price starting from € 2.855,00*
*Price valid for the version without cushion – frame in glossy chrome and upholstery in black saddle leather (cod. 657EC1 CP1).
The Pollock armchair represents the perfect combination between the elegance and functionality; an example of how the office seats can take care of their aesthetics down to the smallest detail without neglecting ergonomics in any way. Charles Pollock's model designed for Knoll presents "circle technology": the use of a single aluminium band on the perimeter of the chair to bind the entire structure, both physically and visually. Available in different variants and finishes, in addition to the numerous variants with and without wheels, swivel, with armrests and star base, Pollock lends itself to any office environment, from the most to the less formal, continuing since the year of its design, which took place in 1963, to transmit their timeless design.

Landed in the United States at the beginning of the ‘30s, Hans Knoll, a young German-born son of a furniture-maker in Stuttgart, proposed to import into the new continent the modern European design, contemporary heritage of the Bauhaus. Died prematurely, his work was continued by his wife, Florence Knoll, who succeeded in establishing lasting partnerships with some of the greatest exponents of the modernist movement. Few years later the Knoll Associates was founded. Today, Knoll is not only a company of re-selling historic furnishings of great artistic value, but continues to innovate by offering creations of the major international design brands both in the home area and in the office furnitures sector.Read more
Designed by
Charles Pollock
Charles Pollock (1930-2013) was an important American designer. During his studies at the Pratt Institute in New York he has the opportunity to meet the famous George Nelson, one of the noble fathers of American design, who is impressed by his qualities and becomes a sort of mentor for him. Pollock works for many years in Nelson's studio, sharing with him several works for Herman Miller and specializing in the creation of furniture based on curved metal tubing, an elegant evolution of the principles of Modernism and Bauhaus. In the 1960s, after setting up his own business, he meets another great protagonist of American design who changes his career. Florence Knoll in fact decides to put some of her creations into production with her Knoll Inc., including the Pollock Executive Chair, which soon becomes one of the group's flagship products, a real must for executive offices in the 1960s., still used in institutions such as the Smithsonian Institution of Washington and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. After moving to Europe in 1965, a long period of creative silence follows, interrupted only by a few rare collaborations such as the one with the Bolognese company Castelli and with the American Bernhardt Design.Read more
