Cirene

It’s static and stackable, with or without armrests, and covered in fabric or leather. Cirene is a project by Vico Magistretti, that comes in many versions. All of the solutions are unmistakably elegant but also extremely versatile and comfortable: the anatomical curved beech shell sits on a slender polished chromed or matte black painted steel frame.
