Construction
A solid wood frame with natural-rubber-rich elastic webbing; the backrest is coated in fire-resistant polyurethane foam, the seat in variable-density foam, and both are cased in heat-bonded fibre on white hypoallergenic cotton. The metal base is polished anti-fingerprint Bronze, and the back legs have a leather or saddle-hide trim. Covers come off completely, in fabric and leather.

Story
Feet and trim
On the sofas the base is a painted metal one: a strip of curved metal in the base finish covers the front legs, and the back legs wear a trim. The trim follows the backrest: leather of the same kind when the back is leather, Bronze-coloured saddle hide when it is fabric.
Removable back
Quick set and release closures let the backrest be lifted off the base so the covers can be taken off.
