Designed by Ernst Martin Dettinger and produced in Frankfurt by Lucas Schnaidt Möbelmanufaktur.
Fantastic streamline design with a narrow backrest, upholstered with a juicy deep turquoise / deep blueish teal velvet.
Copper rivets make the design even more elegant and unusual.
The wooden elements seem to be from alder. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
