Description
The Papyrus Chair from Kartell was designed by the Bouroullec Brothers, Ronan and Erwan - a pair of designers with a highly iconic sophisticated and conceptual style.
Papyrus is a plastic, polycarbonate tub style chair which brings together simplicity, grace and refinement and is a reminder of something we may have seen in the past. In fact, Papyrus is really a contemporary version of the archetypal antique 'Rush' chair from a time when chair structures were decisive and strong! It combines translucent support with slender vertical reeding to the rear which runs along the entire outside of the rounded backrest which, in turn, envelopes the sitter with its soft and snug lines. The seat itself is both comforting and welcoming and the whole chair structure is extremely light.
Please note that due to packing restrictions these chairs must be ordered in multiples of two per colour.
