Jak was in the making for a long while before it came to fruition in 2020. Tom remarks, “This chair has been in my head and on the drawing board for a while. I wanted to make something very practical, not too formal, but at the same time very smart. I had the twentieth century Modernists in the back of my mind – I was thinking of Jean Prouvé’s Standard chair, and Gio Ponti’s Superleggera chair, both smart and modest. I wanted to make a chair for the twenty first century.”
Jak can be completed in any of our standard or specialist finishes and comes in your choice of fabric or leather upholstery. To browse all the options, have a look at our Finishes & Materials page.
