Story
Retuning a classic
Moroso introduces Longwave with the words "Retuning a classic!" and likens it to a motorcycle of the 60's that has been given a new engine: all of the attitude, yet still a modern machine. The chair has a high back and constant flowing lines, and it is intended as a personal space at home or in the office for relaxing and reading.
Foam, steel frame and ash feet
Beneath the cover, a steel frame carries injected foam, and the feet are varnished ash. Covers cannot be taken off; the choice is a full range of fabrics or Diesel's treated leather, which Moroso offers for the "deluxe treatment".
