Tom Dixon, “S-Chair”

A sculptural icon of British design, the S-Chair by Tom Dixon challenges traditional form with its bold, sinuous silhouette. Originally crafted in the late 1980s, it has since evolved into a contemporary classic—now produced in Italy with refined materials and expert upholstery. Resting on a cast-iron base, the chair’s flowing shape balances industrial strength with ergonomic comfort. Part of the permanent collection at MoMA, the S-Chair represents Dixon’s fusion of raw energy and sophisticated craftsmanship.
