with its low, generous silhouette, the Rio is characteristic of Pierre Guariche's work on functional furniture with simple, modern lines. The seat has balanced lines, composed of a wide, slightly inclined backrest and a deep seat resting on a slender tubular black metal frame. The wooden armrests provide a warm contrast and emphasize the particularly light design of the structure.

These armchairs have been fully restored by our workshop. The foam has been replaced, and the entire chair has been reupholstered in a beige tweed fabric, chosen to provide texture and softness while respecting the original lines of the design.

Excellent condition. Fully reupholstered in our workshop.
