This design was based on the designs of Charles Rennie Mackingtosh and built in the 1984. There was only one made. This piece underneath is signed by the designer and the year of production. He kept it in his workshop all these years, but decided to seperate from it because his workshop was demolished and he retired. This kind of seating is a Victorian-era innovation, the “vis-a-vis,” meaning “face to face,” a chair designed for intimate conversation. Inviting as a centerpiece in a open area. The fabric is very easy to refurbish. size: 160 x 140 x 50 cm
