Who invented the Tolix chair?

The original Tolix chair was designed by Xavier Pauchard in . Pauchard&#;s father and grandfather were zinc roofers, and it was through his metal-related expertise that in Pauchard discovered it was possible to protect sheet metal from rusting either by dipping it in molten zinc or galvanising it.

Ten years after making this discovery, Pauchard set up his own factory manufacturing steel household goods under the brand name Tolix, which is still operational today. The Tolix chair, which was known as the Model A, was designed for indoor use as well as all-weather outdoor use, which is why it features holes in the seats for the rain to drain off. However, despite its instant appeal among café and bistro owners across France, they complained that the chairs were impractical as they wouldn&#;t stack properly. Taking this feedback on board, a slimmer-framed, stackable Tolix chair which could be stacked 25 chairs high to 2.3 metres, was launched in . The chair&#;s popularity went from strength to strength, being used in factories, hospitals and offices as well as hospitality settings.

Since then, the Tolix chair has become a worldwide favourite in restaurants, bars and homes thanks to its hardwearing retro chic. Indeed, such is the iconic status of the design that examples are on display in New York&#;s Museum of Modern Art and Paris&#;s Pompidou Centre.

The Tolix legacy

Today, Tolix chairs, which are still manufactured from rugged steel, are available from around £200. While this is a great opportunity to own an original piece of design for those with money to burn or for collectors of fine furniture, it is not a practical or affordable option for the hospitality industry. Luckily, there are plenty Tolix-inspired options available, including our hugely popular Bella range.

Retro style with modern design

Our range of Bella Chairs are manufactured from high-quality steel and are precision welded to guarantee the durability needed for the demands of the hospitality environment. Fitted with rubber feet to protect flooring and facilitate smooth gliding across all surfaces, our Bella chairs can be stacked up to ten high, making them easy to store or move.

The perfect finish for you

As well as its retro industrial style, the Bella Chair is a popular choice because of its versatility. Available in black, blue, mint green, orange, red, silver, white and yellow, there is an option for every colour scheme. Alternatively, the Bella Chair with Wooden Seat and the Bella Chair with Upholstered Seat are both great options for indoor use in your restaurant, café or bar and the Bella Tall Stool is the perfect partner for bars and poseur tables. Another great benefit of the Bella Chair is its versatility when mixing with different tables such as our contemporary Chrome Pyramid Table or more traditional Shaker Table.
