Eye-catching chaise longue, model "Ruffian", designed by Niall O'Flynn for 't Spectrum in the Netherlands in 1997.

They have a tubular metal frame, nicely crafted from one piece, and a woven metal seating, making the seating experience nice and comfortable. A great piece that would make a great addition to any interior! In good original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina.
