Since 1989 Modernica has proven itself with its steadfast commitment to authenticity and craftsmanship. Being at the forefront of rediscovering and relaunching out-of-production pieces, Modernica has revitalized designs that previously were only available to a select few.
Modernica’s Split Rail series is based on Florence Knoll's Parallel Bar Series. The series was specifically designed for corporate clients such as IBM and CBS. Knoll began manufacturing the series in 1955 and ended its production in 1973.
In 1999, Modernica reconfigured and reengineered the series to increase its durability and comfort — thus making this timeless classic easily available and affordable for the home or office.
Handcrafted by our master builders, one-by-one each chair is made of top-quality genuine materials and built specifically to order. The superior craftsmanship and significant design of this chair makes Modernica’s Split Rail Chair a long-standing modern classic, one that is built to last for generations.
The Split Rail Chair is offered in 30 fabric choices and in either a triple chrome-plated steel frame or a solid North American walnut frame.
