An icon of the 1970s, this design perfectly blends Eastern minimalism with Italian avant-garde style. Unlike the standard armless model, this version with armrests is much rarer, more sought after, and harder to find. The lightweight frame is made of chromed steel rod with industrial electrofusion welding, resulting in perfectly smooth joints that create a floating aesthetic and impeccable structural strength. The chairs are stable, rust-free, and show only minor signs of use. The upholstery is original and would require reupholstering. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
