Comback Sled
By Patricia Urquiola
Kartell has fun revisiting a great classic and gives a new look to the Windsor chair A return to the glorious past of England in the XVIIIth century for a “Comb Back” version of the chair with an opaque texture, featuring a backrest consisting of seven “teeth” which spread out towards the lumbar region where they meet a reinforced hexagonal rim with slim shafts radiating down to join the seat. A goodly size, this single mould chair embodies functionality and well-freighted ergonomics with sentiment and memories. The use of plastic and the use of pastel colours on offer give a touch of lightness and the contemporary to the Comback chair The Comback comes in several modernised versions the swivel model with four spokes and a central swivel shaft and the sled with two slim tubular sides.
