Description
Overview
The Turtle Barstool by Pearson Lloyd condenses the outer shell, the distinguishing feature of the Turtle range, to a minimum. The inner shell is shaped like a supporting hand and keeps you secure, and the footrest continues the sweeping shape. The barstool is available in two heights.
Construction
The seat is a moulded shell. Its outer shell is white, black or completely upholstered, and the upholstery consists of polyurethane foam and a wadding cover. The swivel base is a flat base plate, chrome-plated with a brushed matt finish, and the stool stands on felt glides. The seat shell and footrest turn with the upper column.
