Description

Der Stuhl Belle basiert auf einer Reihe literarischer und stilistischer Bezüge und ist das zarte, weibliche Gegenstück zum Tisch Bull. Die abgerundeten Linien und die mit Leder überzogene Sitzfläche sind als Pendant zum runden Querschnitt der Tischbeine zu verstehen, während die an der Unterseite leicht ausgestellten Beine ihm Leichtigkeit verleihen. Nach oben hin enden die Beine in der Rückenlehne, deren Armlehne eine elegante „Ellbogenform“ bildet. Die Rückenlehne ist in zwei Ausführungen erhältlich: aus Eichenholz in den gleichen Varianten wie das Gestell (hell, grau, schwarz und geräuchert) oder mit zur Sitzfläche passendem Lederüberzug, der dank einer besonderen Produktionstechnologie möglich ist.

Back
Concept

«The character of this elegant chair is expressed by the back support and the armrests, and highlighted by the obtuse angle line around the elbow area. All four legs are slightly curved outwards at the bottom to give a classic feel as well. The chair is named “Belle” after the story of “The Beauty and the Beast”.»
