Story
Lines taken from metal chairs
Calipso takes its cue from the principles of good design and the classic aesthetic values of metal chairs. The result has clean, deliberately simple, uncluttered lines.
Made for outdoor places
The sinuous epoxy powder-coated metal structure has an especially all-weather-resistant finish, which makes Calipso an ideal chair for outdoor environments. It is easily stackable, can be paired with any of the tables in the Flexform collection, and suits balconies, patios, gardens and swimming pools as well as lounge bars and restaurants.
