Roxor
The Roxor stackable chair by renowned designer Jiří Pelcl celebrates low-tech design and a material typically concealed within building structures: ribbed reinforcing steel (rebar). By bringing this raw material into the world of contemporary design, the chair achieves a bold character and uncompromising strength. Despite its industrial aesthetic, the contoured seat and backrest offer surprisingly high seating comfort. The chair is available both with and without armrests.
The distinctive double-jointed connection is not merely a visual motif, but an engineered structural detail that makes the manufacturing process possible. Because rebar cannot be shaped on standard CNC machinery, every single piece is bent, welded, and hand-finished by skilled craftspeople. Thanks to precise craftsmanship and ergonomic contouring, seating is surprisingly comfortable—the ribbed steel profile feels smooth to the touch and offers the same seating comfort as standard wire-frame chairs. The chair is highly durable, stackable, and thanks to its protective surface finish, engineered for demanding use on outdoor terraces, in bistros, and in contemporary residential kitchens.
