This chair features a black metal base and a yellow scoubidou seat and backrest, a combination of materials that brings warmth and visual lightness. Its slender silhouette and proportions make it ideal for a kitchen, a bistro table, or a desk area, while the contrast between the metal and the bright weave creates a retro yet contemporary feel. Available in three pieces to create a coherent set. Some signs of age.

A brief history of the chair
In the Middle Ages, sitting on a high-backed seat was a rare privilege, reserved for the person leading the assembly: the "president" (from the Latin praesidere, to sit 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 complete freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it has evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a testament to the history of comfort.
