The Aluminium Chiar is one of the greatest furniture designs of the 20th century. The Aluminium Chair stands out for its intelligent combination of materials.

The covers are attached inside the aluminium profile sections ans simply stretched over the frame transforming them from mere coverings to a load-bearing part of the structure. It adapts to fit the body snugly and delivers great comfort even without extensive upholstery.
