Story
A dining version of Tape
Minotti says the thicknesses of the Tape dining little armchair are slightly increased, which the page says gives greater visual comfort, while its distinctive personality is kept. The soft curve of the shell shapes the armrest and holds a softly shaped lumbar cushion.
A metal base against upholstery
The page contrasts the Black Coffee metal base, resting on Black Nickel or Champagne chrome feet, with the leather or fabric finishes of the seat upholstery.
