Vintage 1960s Engineers Drafting Chair by Evertaut | British Industrial Design Classic

  • £215.00


Functional. Fierce. Unapologetically industrial.
Step into the golden age of British engineering with this rare Evertaut engineer’s drafting chair – a utilitarian gem from the 1960s that fuses raw functionality with vintage cool.

Originally built for precision, durability, and comfort in factories and workshops, this chair is a brilliant example of post-war industrial design. Its mechanical base, rotating seat, and hard-wearing frame are made for movement – whether you’re sketching plans, mixing beats, or styling a loft apartment with real edge.

With its curved black seat, yellow height-adjustment decal, and distressed cream-painted steel frame, this piece wears its patina like a badge of honour. An authentic touch of character for interiors that dare to be different.

Manufactured in the UK by Evertaut – known for their heavy-duty factory and laboratory seating – this is the real deal. Not a reproduction.

Black vinyl saddle seat and backrest pair beautifully with the powder-coated tubular steel base, giving it that classic Bauhaus-meets-British-industrial edge.

Engineered for comfort and movement, this chair rotates and includes an integrated metal foot rail – perfect for drafting tables, workbenches, or elevated counters.

📏 Dimensions:

  • Height (60cm to eat) 90cm overall
