Construction

The datasheet lists a frame in heat-sealed, painted steel, a seat frame in fibreglass, and a seat in plastic material with polyurethane padding. The version with metal legs has a cold-folded, vacuum-painted steel carter, and the feet are non-slip plastic.

Specifications

• OSE2 chair, upholstered structure with metal legs: 51 cm wide, 56 cm deep, 84 cm high (not labelled on the drawing)
• Metal leg finishes: pewter colour, iris, iridium brown

Many versions for tables

The datasheet calls Outline the ideal companion for all tables because of the multitude of available versions: in full fabric or leather, or in fabric and leather with metal legs. It says that comfort meets functionality over time thanks to the ergonomic seat and multiple upholstery options.

The seat

The page describes an ergonomically contoured fibreglass seat dressed in removable fabric or leather upholstery, fully upholstered, with a sleek profile that the page links to timeless Italian craftsmanship.
