Academy Armchair, Sled Base
The Academy AC chair by Connubia sets a softly enclosing shell on a slender metal sled base.
Low arms flow from the rounded back, while the continuous frame creates an open outline beneath the seat. The combination gives this dining armchair a clear contrast between the broad curved upper body and fine supporting lines. Model code: CB2143.
