Abstract
A stackable chair moulded in one piece from plastic material has a seat, a back, front legs, rear legs and right and left arm rests. The legs are formed with outwardly directed channels, the forward edge portion of each rear leg and the rearward edge portion of each front leg, being extended upwardly beyond the seat to form rearward and forward portions of the corresponding arm rests. The arm rests are of downwardy opening U-shape cross section and one is slightly narrower, lower and shorter than the other so that the arm rests can nest with arm rests of adjacent chairs to link the chairs together in a row.
