The Cesca B32 chair combines the lightness of chrome-plated tubular metal, the warmth of black lacquered wood, and the visual softness of grey faux leather. This second-hand chair, with its Breuer & Bauhaus design, fits naturally into a contemporary interior, around a dining table or in an office. Its seat offers measured comfort, while its proportions allow it to be placed without weighing down the space. The contrasts between the metal structure and the lacquered surfaces create a sober and refined presence, faithful to the 1980s. Around a light table, it welcomes an everyday dinner as well as a snack, with understated elegance.

A brief history of the chair
In the Middle Ages, sitting on a chair with a backrest was a rare privilege, reserved for the person who led the assembly: the "president" (from the Latin praesidere, to be seated in front). Long a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the common people, the chair only became democratized in the 18th century to become an everyday object. It is distinguished from the armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to offer total freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
