The chairs are distinguished by a solid wood frame with exposed grain and a refined balance between geometric lines and curvilinear details, particularly visible in the slightly inclined and arched backrest.
The seat and backrest are upholstered in green fabric, with a subtle weave that adds textural depth and contrast to the warm wood tone.
Bettonica, also known for his collaborations with renowned architect Gianfranco Frattini, is recognized for his attention to proportion and the quality of the finishes, making these pieces suitable for both refined domestic settings and professional environments seeking an authentic and understated vintage touch.
