Designed by Ray Wilkes for Herman Miller®
Designed by Ray Wilkes and first introduced in 1976, this eye-catching modular armchair made a lasting impression with bold, rounded-edge cushions that reminded people of the shape of Chiclet gum. Steel brackets joining the seat and back allow for independent flex that provides a surprising level of individual comfort.
- A playful silhouette that appears to float.
- This postmodern design has been reintroduced in new fabrics and hues.
- Beautifully smooth contours give this piece a fluid, uniform appearance.
- Innovative injection foam molding technique creates smooth shapes with no waste.
- Dubbed “Chiclet” due to its rounded-edge cushions that look like the classic gum.

Beck Fabric
Wool and nylon each rank among the most durable fibers, so it’s not surprising that their combined weave is ideally suited to high-traffic furnishings. Due to its wool content, Beck is wrinkle-resistant, and the addition of nylon delivers high-performing elasticity – it stretches while retaining its shape. Beck features natural color variation and a slightly felted texture for a luxe look and feel. Plus, it’s Greenguard Gold certified to minimize indoor air pollution.

- Durability: 100,000 Rubs Martindale Method
- Origin: Turkey
- Maintenance: Professional cleaning recommended. Spot-clean with mild, water-free dry cleaning solvent. Vacuum regularly using the proper attachment to avoid pilling.
