Premium and Made-to-Measure Chairs
Premium chairs cost several times what a mid-range chair does, and the case for them rests on the engineering behind the mechanism, how long the chair lasts, and how much of it can be repaired or re-covered instead of replaced. Several of the makers here have kept the same models in production for many years, which is why their chairs turn up on the used market. Made-to-measure builders sit alongside them, taking a sitter's measurements or offering enough seat, back and cylinder options to configure a chair to one person. This category lists makers at the top of the market, including the ones better known in Europe and Japan.
