AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

4 chairs

Pagholz • stackable • Space Age

Four stackable Flötotto shell chairs from the 1970s. The seat shells are made of rosewood Pagholz. Pag-Holz consists of real wood veneer panels that are impregnated with phenol resins and formed under heat and high pressure. The layers are uniformly bonded and the surfaces extremely durable. In a furniture reference book from 1956 Pag Holz is described as "foolproof" and highly resistant. The frames are made of chrome-plated steel tubing and have floor-protecting plastic feet. The chairs impress with the exceptionally ergonomic shape of the seat shell, which gently flexes and is extremely comfortable even after long sitting. The chairs are suitable for all occasions. As timeless design classics they fit just as well in the kitchen as in the dining room or children's room, or around a conference table, depending on the appropriate surroundings. The chairs are used and show normal signs of wear.
