The S19 from Galvanitas

The Galvanitas S19 chair is very similar to its brother the S16. Both had their origins in the classroom. Where the S16 still has a loose back panel, this has been replaced by a plywood shell on the S19.

A special design chair

The chair was designed and produced by Galvanitas in Oosterhout in the late 1950s and early 1960s. They opted for a design with the typical compass legs. Instead of the usual tube construction, the designer opted for a frame made of pressed sheet steel. A very solid and at the same time revolutionary design for that time.

A chair made for intensive use

The S19 was and is specially intended for intensive use in public buildings, such as schools, institutions and canteens. Galvanitas is (still) known for its quality and reliability. Where some people experience the S16 as static, the S19 makes short work of this. Because the seat consists of one whole, it springs slightly, which increases seating comfort.

Galvanitas S19 just like before

De Machinekamer, in collaboration with Galvanitas, offers you the unique opportunity to order brand new S19 chairs. Furniture from the original factory and made with the original product molds. All newly manufactured parts are completely identical. The only concession – the frame is now welded instead of soldered – benefits the environment. The frame is available in different colours. This way you give your own twist to this well-known classic.
