Made of bentwood stained black, these chairs are distinguished by their circular, openwork backrest, emblematic of the model.

This highly recognizable silhouette makes it a classic of 20th-century French bistro and brasserie design.

The round seat and slightly tapered legs rest on a solid frame with a circular stretcher, designed for long-lasting use in cafes and restaurants.

The chairs have a beautiful original patina, with slight signs of age that attest to their authenticity and enhance their vintage charm (visible in photos).

official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
