Description / construction: Seat & back in synderme, reinforced with a non-stretch backing. A chromed zip to the rear is partly for aesthetic reasons, but also as a means of detaching the cover from the metal frame. ‘ Sleigh’ feet in brilliant-chromed steel. Also available in natural cow-hide, seat & back in black, white & brown natural cowhide, in the same spirit as the Marguerite rug. The fact that each cowhide is different makes each Fil chair completely unique.
