Emeco was originally founded in 1944 following a collaborative project with Alcoa to develop a seaworthy chair for submarines and warships. During WWII the U.S government asked the founder, Wilton Carlyle Dinges, to make chairs that could withstand water, salt air and sailors. The chairs had to be lightweight, strong and built to last a lifetime. By the end of the 1950's, Emeco aluminium chairs outfitted all famous U.S Navy Ships and submarines including the first nuclear submarine, Nautilus. Emeco’s all-aluminium chairs are 100% recyclable and have an estimated life span of 150 years or more.
With an estimated life span of more than 150 years, this 100% recyclable aluminium chair is lightweight, strong and built to last. Its renowned design is part of the permanent collection of the Carnegie Museum of Art and was first built for use on submarines in 1944. With the famous Emeco 77 step process, the craftsmen take soft, recycled aluminium, hand form and weld it then temper it for strength. This model has a luxurious hand brushed aluminium finish that will look great in any contemporary styled home. Please note – This product is only available in PAIRS and individual chairs are not sold separately.
