What are the traditional leather colors for a Wassily Chair? What colors are available?

The Leather colors originally available from the manufacturer were: black, dark brown and tan. These are considered the truly classic colors. Over the years other colors were introduced as was a hair-on hide option sometimes referred to as a “pony hide”. The classically iconic look of a Wassily chair is with black leather, which is the most popular.

Many clients take advantage of the Advanced Leather Solutions color matching skills. The leather can be colored whatever suits the client’s aesthetic needs. Advanced Leather Solutions starts with raw leather and custom colors the hide to match whatever color the client desires. While most clients prefer the original color with black leather being the most common color, some clients have made statement with outlandish colors. For example, a client required a pastel color as their chair resides in a Caribbean island setting. Some have requested a mottled color look where there is subtle color variation across the leather. You decide. Send us a reference of the color you want and we match it. The color options are endless.
