With its bistro spirit, this Baumann wooden chair easily pairs with a dining table or a desk in a contemporary interior. The dark wood gives it a sober look, while the mint green seat adds a softer and more measured touch. Its backrest and seat provide pleasant support, and its proportions allow it to slide around a table without weighing down the overall aesthetic. One can also imagine it in a bedroom, accompanied by a blanket draped over the backrest and a reading lamp, to create a daily nook. Sold individually, 3 pieces available. Width: 34 cm Depth: 37 cm Height: 80 cm Seat height: 48 cm Seat width: 37 cm Seat depth: 37 cm A brief history of the chair In the Middle Ages, sitting on a chair with a backrest was a rare privilege, reserved for the leader of the assembly: the "president" [from the Latin praesidere, to sit before]. For a long time a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the common people, the chair only became more common in the 18th century, evolving into a daily object. It is distinguished from an armchair by the absence of armrests, a design intended to offer complete freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and sturdiness, it has evolved from sculpted solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
