Product Information

Full details

The Verpan Series 270 F Armchair is ideal for design enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate mid-century modernist furniture that doubles as a statement art piece. Its key benefit is the combination of ergonomic curved birch plywood construction with a vibrant, iconic aesthetic originally conceived by Verner Panton. Prospective buyers should note that with a seat height of 36 cm, this chair features a lower lounge-style profile that may feel less accessible than standard dining chairs.

FAQs

Is the Series 270 F suitable for dining tables?

The seat height is 36 cm, which is lower than a standard dining chair (usually 45 cm). It is intended primarily for lounge or accent seating.

Does the chair require assembly?

The Series 270 F typically arrives as a completed piece, requiring no complex assembly.

How do I protect the lacquer finish?

Keep the chair out of direct sunlight and use only soft cloths for cleaning; avoid all abrasive chemicals.

Is the chair heavy to move?

No, the chair weighs only 7 kg, making it quite portable for its size.

Is the wood sustainably sourced?

Yes, the chair is FSC-certified, ensuring the birch plywood is sourced from responsibly managed forests.

Troubleshooting

Surface appears dull or dusty

Gently buff the surface with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to restore the natural sheen of the lacquer.

Wobbling on uneven floors

Check if the floor is level; if not, use small, transparent felt pads under the base to level the chair and protect floor surfaces.

  • Durable birch plywood construction
  • Bold and vibrant orange finish
  • Lightweight and easy to move at 7 kg

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This armchair arrives fully assembled or with minimal requirement for attachment, depending on the retailer. To preserve the vibrant orange lacquer, place the chair away from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent fading. For daily cleaning, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. If a deeper clean is required, use a slightly damp cloth followed immediately by a dry one. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could scratch the lacquer finish. Given its modernist style, the chair pairs exceptionally well with neutral-toned carpets or minimalist wooden flooring.
