Design/ origin-
These chairs really have it all. Every section has been well-made and thoughtfully designed.
Low lounge style armchairs, give an amazing sense of retro luxury. Comprising of individual elements, carefully pulled together with contrasting materials. Soft organic leather folds over a machine-aged (almost Bauhaus) ridged high polished chrome frame. The cushions are joined to the frame with small leather belts. The sides curve over the armrests, in a scroll shape. Large deep buttons pull the leather into shape on the seat and back rest. All giving a great comfortable seat.
The base has a distinctive mesh construction, not seen on many chairs.
Colour of leather is dark brown, not black.
Although these chairs have not yet been identified, there are many designer's who produced such incredible designs similar to this. I have researched about 20 likely designers with on such conclusion.
