Description

This gorgeous pair features an iron structure painted in white and sisal (new). The intricate sisal pattern goes through the armchairs and also through the steel arms, giving the impression that everything is one piece. The artisan who restored this piece applied the same weaving technique Hauner used back in the fifties. This iconic design has been countlessly photographed in vintage and contemporary publications.
