The armchairs’ classic Scandinavian design is characterised by the lightness of the natural rattan and the distinctive silhouette of the tall, curved backrest.

The entire structure is made of woven rattan with finely crafted weave patterns. A particularly attractive detail is the decorative, cross-woven lattice pattern that runs along the lower edge, lending these sturdy armchairs a lighter and more distinctive look. The curved armrests and the enveloping, high backrest ensure a comfortable, armchair-like seating experience\.

The pair of armchairs currently offered for sale consists of natural-coloured rattan frames with their original blue cushions. They remain in their original condition. The cushions can, of course, be used as you wish, so the armchairs look great both with and without them.
