Due to the nature of the grain, the raw and unornamented chairs have an iridescent and natural grainy quality. The robust satin‑lacquered finish is clean and smart, and the light‑to‑medium caramel brown wood tone feels warm and inviting. The chairs are upholstered in a beige cut velour whose pattern subtly echoes the natural wood‑grain texture of the chair frames.
The Constructivist urban and austere design of these chairs project an air of strength and solidity.
