I was really happy recently to receive an enquiry for a vintage Supporto Task Chair from a valued client of mine.
I decided to use one of my oldest frames as a starting point. This would involve a sticker removal process followed by a multi-stage hand polish to restore the cast aluminium frame.
All pins and gases were replaced along with the pads. On a project like this I always use authentic Supporto replacement parts which helps with vintage chairs in the future when decent provenance is required.
This example used Camira fabric in the colour Girder which is a kind of gun metal colour: essentially black, with grey-green tones.
The beauty of vintage Supporto chairs lies in the ability to replace parts fairly quickly and easily while keeping a beautiful vintage chair, which should hopefully last you a lifetime. This one is no exception.
