The structure, defined by clean and balanced lines, rests on turned uprights with stretcher supports, while the backrest is animated by tapered spindles that bring rhythm and lightness to the composition.
The straight armrests, simply shaped, reflect a functional modernist approach softened by the warmth of the wood and the handmade character of the piece.
The seat is woven in traditional straw, adding comfort and authenticity. The chair displays a beautiful time-worn patina, along with signs of older restorations.
