Specialist Notes
The structure, unlike traditionally rigid ones, is composed of a support body made of rattan and a refined weave of thin indian canes, held together by circularly disposed nails. The design evokes the 800's tradition of rattan seats, with big embracing backs. Each seat has its own padded pillow.
