Natural walnut frame, leather seat and backrest with the manufacturer's logo on the rear tips.
The Kentucky chair combines naturalness with the value of masterfully crafted leather; the visible stitching on the seat and backrest is a decorative element resulting from sophisticated tailoring. The seat and backrest are anchored to the frame with individual tensioned elastic straps, construction details that become highly decorative. The chair, which has a backward-leaning seat, was designed to meet a variety of needs, both in terms of functionality and ergonomics. Made in Italy in the 1970s.
