Chair with or without armrests featuring an extreme light design and a careful balance of solids and voids, Petra embodies versatility, functionality and elegance. The frame in solid canaletta walnut and the upholstered seat are separated while coexisting in absolute harmony. This feature is a winning solution in everyday use as it facilitates the grip, making it easier to move the chair around. The separation between wood and upholstery also provides Petra with back flexibility, enhancing its comfort. This chair is visually very light, but with a strong aesthetic design. It is practical and functional and ensures a high level of versatility in the various interior design projects.
