The dining-chair format

The chair belongs to Flexform's dining category and is drawn without arms as code 02F911. Its separate seat and backrest volumes sit on a base that traces the sides and lower front of the chair.

Softness held by a metal line

Flexform's text sets the generous padding against the essential quality of the support. The seat adds a goose-down outer layer over graded foam, while the back combines its metal-and-wood support with variable-density padding.
