Postmodern and playful, the Wilkes Modular Armchair is composed of four, colorful upholstered panels that create the delightful illusion that the chair is floating on air. Its beautifully smooth contours, created by the bold, rounded-edge cushions, give the Wilkes a fluid, uniform appearance. A sought-after design icon from 1974, the Wilkes Armchair—also known by its nickname, "Chiclet"—is now back in production, made in the USA by Herman Miller and available in a rainbow of colors.

 
The Wilkes Armchair is created with an innovative injection foam molding technique that creates smooth shapes with no waste of materials. A surprising amount of comfort is provided by the chair’s independent flex, created by steel brackets that join the seat and the back. The fabric is made from 63% wool, 21% polyester and 16% nylon. Both the chair’s designer, Ray Wilkes, and its manufacturer, Herman Miller, are represented in MoMA’s collection. Arrives fully assembled. The Wilkes Modular Armchair measures 27.75h x 36.25w x 30.75"d with a seat height of 15.5"h. To clean, use a mild, water-free dry cleaning solvent.
