The AAC 222 Dining Chair offers functional simplicity and modern aesthetics in a timeless chair design. This model is characterised by a curved shell with a slightly higher back than the original AAC series. Designed with optimal functionality in mind, the shell construction offers a deep, generous seat that combines inviting aesthetics with ultimate comfort, whilst the lower armrests provide good support and enable the chair to fit underneath a table or desk. 

The oak base is available in different finishes and the post-consumer recycled plastic shell is offered in a variety of colours, providing a multitude of design combinations that give this series versatility in a wide range of home, corporate and public contexts.

The About series is HAY's most versatile furniture series. It began with a chair and blossomed into a series with virtually unlimited potential. With the About series, Hee Welling has proven that a single strong idea can hold a wealth of development options. Today, the series includes dining and conference chairs, office chairs, bar stools, lounge chairs, tables, a footstool and a sofa. All are equally suitable for private and public settings.

Materials/Construction

Shell - Injection moulded solid-coloured polypropylene shell with armrest. 100% post-consumer recycled PP made from household white goods.
Base - Moulded plywood base. Inner plywood in beech, top veneer in water-based (eco-friendly) lacquered oak, black lacquered oak, lacquered walnut or soaped oak.
Glider - Plastic. Suitable for all floorings that are not too sensitive.

The use of recycled material means that colours vary slightly from batch to batch. Marks and irregularities on the surface are a natural part of the material and may occur.

Among HAY's ongoing initiatives to reduce their ecological footprint, is the introduction of water-based lacquer on a selection of their wooden furniture. The environmental benefits are clear – the new lacquer does not contain any harmful substances and is used on FSC wood sourced from sustainable forests. The lacquer fulfils all the EU Ecolabel requirements.

    Amazing chairs!

    I bought two of these chairs for our dining table and they are amazing. Sturdy, well built and gorgeous to look at - just beautiful pieces of furniture. Customer Service was fantastic throughout, explaining expected dates of arrival and explaining delays (over the Christmas strikes). Every part of the process was great. I initially ordered only two as they are expensive, but having received them and seen the quality, I am planning on ordering some more.
