Vitra Aluminium Group

The Vitra EA117 in polished aluminium with Nero leather is one of the most recognised configurations within the Aluminium Group. It combines a clean, structured frame with a deep black leather finish, resulting in a chair that feels both precise and understated. The contrast between the polished aluminium and the dark upholstery gives it a sharp, architectural look that fits naturally into professional environments.

The polished aluminium frame adds clarity and lightness to the design. It reflects just enough light to stand out, without becoming overly prominent. Paired with Nero leather, the overall appearance remains balanced and controlled. The leather itself has a smooth, dense finish that feels durable and refined, while maintaining a subtle, matte character.

As a mid-back office chair, the EA117 offers a more compact profile compared to the higher EA119. This makes it particularly suited for desks where a full executive chair would feel too large. The suspended upholstery adapts to the body, providing a flexible and supportive seating experience without relying on bulky cushioning.

This configuration is often chosen for its versatility. It works well in both home offices and professional settings, where a clean and consistent aesthetic is important. The combination of polished aluminium and black leather has a timeless quality, making the EA117 a long-term choice rather than a trend-driven one.
