Platner Arm Chair

Designed by Warren Platner


Starting from €3430


The Platner Arm Chair was designed by Warren Platner for Knoll in 1966 as part of the collection that transformed the visual language of the steel wire rod into something simultaneously rigorous and deeply sensuous — a base of hundreds of vertical cold-drawn steel rods, finished in Polished Nickel or Bronze, supporting a compact upholstered seat and back at a height suited to dining tables, conference tables, or use within a lounge grouping alongside the Platner Lounge Chair.

Product History & Recognition

Designer Warren Platner for Knoll
Introduced 1966 — continuously produced since introduction
Produced By KnollStudio® — part of the MillerKnoll collective
Compatibility Dimensionally suited for use with the Platner Dining Table at 686 mm height

Dining rooms & hospitality dining

At 457 mm seat height, the Arm Chair works perfectly with standard dining table heights, especially the Platner Dining Table.

Conference & boardroom settings

In leather upholstery with Polished Nickel or Bronze finishes, the chair elevates conference spaces with understated authority.

Occasional lounge seating

Pairs naturally with the Platner Lounge Chair for mixed-height seating compositions that feel visually complete and intentional.

Premium hospitality environments

Ideal for restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and private clubs where material quality and sculptural distinction are expected.

The Platner Arm Chair occupies the most versatile position in the collection. Its 457 mm seat height allows it to function equally well at dining tables, conference tables, and workplace meeting environments without modification. The compact footprint makes it suitable for tighter seating layouts where the deeper Lounge Chair would be impractical.

In lounge or breakout settings, the Arm Chair complements the Platner Lounge Chair beautifully by introducing a secondary seating height while maintaining the same sculptural rod-wire language. The effect is visually resolved rather than assembled — a hallmark of the Platner Collection since 1966.

Warren Platner designed the collection around the idea that structure itself could become ornament. The result is furniture that reads as expressive and sculptural without sacrificing clarity, comfort, or practicality.

Care Instructions

Polished Nickel Base

Wipe regularly with a soft dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Mild soap solution is safe for marks. Avoid abrasive pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners.

Bronze Base

Clean with a soft dry cloth. Bronze develops a subtle natural patina over time. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaning products.

Fabric Upholstery

Vacuum or brush regularly. For spills, blot immediately rather than rubbing. Use a mild upholstery cleaner suitable for the selected textile.

Leather Upholstery

Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth and condition periodically using a leather conditioner suitable for full-grain leather.

Sustainability

Enduring Design

In continuous production since 1966, designed for longevity and reupholstery rather than replacement.

Knoll & MillerKnoll

Knoll is part of the MillerKnoll collective, which maintains extensive environmental and sustainability commitments across production.

Knoll Legacy

История и производство

Дизайнер Warren Platner для Knoll
Запуск 1966 — непрерывное производство с момента запуска
Производитель KnollStudio® — часть MillerKnoll collective
Совместимость Оптимально сочетается с Platner Dining Table высотой 686 мм

Dining rooms & hospitality dining

Высота сиденья 457 мм полностью совместима со стандартными dining tables — идеальное сочетание с Platner Dining Table.

Conference & boardroom settings

В leather upholstery и финишах Polished Nickel или Bronze chair добавляет boardroom-интерьерам material authority.

Lounge groupings

В комбинации с Platner Lounge Chair создаёт mixed-height lounge arrangement с визуальной целостностью.

Premium hospitality

Для hotel dining, restaurants и private clubs, где material quality и sculptural presence являются стандартом.

Platner Arm Chair занимает наиболее универсальное положение в коллекции. Высота сиденья 457 мм позволяет использовать chair за dining table, conference table или стандартной рабочей поверхностью без каких-либо модификаций, а footprint 578 × 597 мм достаточно компактен для четырёх- и шестиместных dining arrangements, где более глубокий Lounge Chair оказался бы слишком массивным.

В lounge-контексте, расположенная рядом с Lounge Chair, Arm Chair завершает seating group, не конкурируя с ней. Rod-wire base делает то, что всегда делал Platner: сначала привлекает внимание, а затем исчезает, потому что как только вы садитесь, остаётся только ощущение исключительно хорошего chair design.

✦ Designed by Warren Platner for Knoll, 1966

Platner Collection была представлена Knoll в 1966 году и с тех пор непрерывно производится — редчайший случай в истории furniture production. Arm Chair создавалась как часть original Platner Collection вместе с Lounge Chair, Stool и Tables, где rod-wire construction объединяет все предметы в единую визуальную систему.

Инструкции по уходу

Polished Nickel base

Протирайте мягкой сухой или слегка влажной lint-free cloth. Для пятен используйте mild soap solution. Не применяйте abrasive pads, steel wool или aggressive cleaners.

Bronze base

Bronze finish со временем приобретает естественную patina. Для ухода используйте мягкую сухую ткань и mild soap solution.

Fabric upholstery

Регулярно очищайте пылесосом или мягкой щёткой. При загрязнениях промакивайте поверхность — не трите. Используйте cleaner, подходящий для конкретного textile.

Leather upholstery

Используйте сухую или слегка влажную ткань. Периодически применяйте leather conditioner. Избегайте direct sunlight и heat sources.

Устойчивость

Enduring design

Platner Arm Chair непрерывно производится с 1966 года — предмет, рассчитанный на decades of use и reupholstery, а не replacement.

—— QUESTIONS

Everything you might ask before buying.

Both share the same rod-wire base construction and the same two finish options. The key differences are in seat height, depth, and posture. The Arm Chair (seat height 457 mm, depth 597 mm) is dimensionally a dining chair — upright, compact, compatible with standard table heights. The Lounge Chair (seat height 387 mm, depth 927 mm) is a low, deep lounge seat. The Arm Chair is the more versatile piece for mixed-use environments; the Lounge Chair is the more comfortable piece for extended informal seating.

Yes — the Platner Arm Chair at 457 mm seat height is compatible with the Platner Dining Table at 686 mm height, providing approximately 229 mm of clearance between the seat surface and the underside of the table. This is within the standard range for comfortable dining use. Specifying both pieces in the same finish (Polished Nickel or Bronze) creates a fully unified dining ensemble.

The Platner Dining Table at 53.75 in (1365 mm) diameter comfortably accommodates 4–6 arm chairs depending on spacing preference. At 578 mm chair width, a four-cover setting allows generous spacing; six covers is achievable with a 60 mm gap between chair sides. Contact our team to discuss your specific configuration.

Yes — the electroplated Polished Nickel finish is durable and can be maintained with a soft cloth. Fingermarks on the mirror finish are the main routine maintenance consideration; a regular wipe with a dry lint-free cloth keeps it at its best. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners. The Bronze finish, which develops a patina over time, is often preferred in dining settings as it shows less fingermarking on a day-to-day basis.

Yes — the Platner Arm Chair is available in our Almaty showroom. We strongly recommend seeing the Polished Nickel and Bronze finishes and upholstery samples in person before specifying.
