The armchair rests on a black lacquered tubular metal frame forming a slender, elegant base. The molded plywood backrest is fully upholstered in foam and then covered in moleskin, offering enhanced comfort while maintaining the model's characteristic enveloping shape. The seat, also upholstered in foam, is covered in matching moleskin. The seat height is 46 cm.

The interplay between the lightness of the metal base and the solid volume of the backrest and seat underscores the modernist approach developed by the Day couple in the 1950s. Model 675 exemplifies their pursuit of rational, elegant furniture suited to contemporary post-war interiors.
