This set of four chairs reinterprets the vintage spirit with very contemporary elegance. Their structure in shiny chrome metal and their backrest made of fine curved vertical rods create a graphic presence, while the upholstered seat in textured beige fabric softens the overall look. Thanks to their comfortable seat height, they easily accompany a dining table and fit into a dining room with a minimalist decor. The silver and beige duo pairs well with light wood, a glass table, or more mineral materials. Around a laid table with simple dishware and fine glasses, they create a refined and timeless ensemble.

For a long time a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the people, the chair did not become common until the 18th century, turning into an everyday object. It is distinguished from an armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to provide total freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it has evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
