The 807 chair is built on a frame of solid wood, plywood, laminated pine, and elements of birch and spruce. The base features nosag springs for added comfort.

The cushions have a polyurethane foam core and are filled on top and bottom with KospoFe. KospoFe consists of small pieces of polyester and down feathers, arranged in pockets above and below the foam core, making the cushions soft and comfortable.

The 807 can be upholstered in a variety of fabrics from Innvik, as well as aniline and semi-aniline leather from Elmo.

The distinctive cross-shaped base is made of black powder-coated steel, allowing the chair to swivel 360 degrees with a slight recline.

We recommend vacuuming the chair regularly using medium suction and a gentle nozzle, preferably with a brush attachment. Be careful to avoid objects with sharp edges. For stains on fabric, use a lint-free cloth or sponge. Warm and wring out the cloth or sponge, then press evenly over the affected area to remove impurities. Avoid rubbing, as this can damage the fabric fibers.

If the chair is upholstered in leather, we recommend following Elmo Leather’s care instructions  and using their maintenance products. Contact us if you need cleaning or care products—we’ll be happy to assist you.
