Cappellini LW 3 High-Back Armchair

Cappellini LW 3 High-Back Armchair

The Cappellini LW 3 High-Back Armchair is a lounge chair for offices and other seating spaces where a high-back design is preferred. Designed by Jasper Morrison, it combines fabric or leather upholstery with a metal base, and is distinguished by its high-back form rather than adjustable task-chair features.

Materials and Base Choices

Choose between fabric and leather upholstery to suit the look and feel you want for your space. The fabric details include the Vancouver fabric range; the available information also identifies fabric category A.

The metal base is listed in white, red, black and brown. These color options let you coordinate the chair with a room’s palette, whether you want a neutral base or a more noticeable accent.

The chair is listed as circular, but no further details are provided about what that designation means. A two-year warranty is specified, giving buyers a clear stated warranty period when planning a purchase.

High-Back Lounge Seating

As a high-back lounge chair, the LW 3 offers a different seating format from an adjustable office task chair. Its seat height, back height and seat depth are not adjustable, so it is best considered when a fixed configuration suits the intended users and setting.

The design has no armrests, headrest or lumbar support. This is useful to know before choosing it: buyers looking specifically for those features or for ergonomic adjustment should compare other seating options, while those seeking a straightforward lounge chair can assess it on its high-back form and upholstery choices.

The stated maximum load is 135 kg. No particular comfort rating or ergonomic standard is specified, so consider the chair as lounge seating rather than assuming it offers task-chair adjustments or certified ergonomic support.

For Office Lounge Areas

The Cappellini LW 3 works as a lounge chair in office spaces where a fixed, high-back seat is appropriate. Its lounge-chair classification helps distinguish it from seating intended for extended desk work, and makes it a consideration for shared or informal seating areas.

It can also be considered for a home office or meeting space when the requirement is a lounge-style chair rather than a height-adjustable work chair. The upholstery and base color choices provide practical ways to coordinate it with the room, while the absence of armrests and adjustment features should guide placement and user expectations.

Designed by Jasper Morrison, the LW 3 is associated with the LW collection and is identified with the dates 1999/2002 in the product information. Standards are not specified, so buyers who require a particular standard should confirm suitability before ordering.
