“A universal four legged chair with armrests. The frame of the chair is nickel-plated and continues around the back to form a handy handgrip. The seat and back are upholstered beech; with plastic armrests.”
This is Gispen’s work horse, in production for decades, usable in any situation: home, office, work. Here we have the end of the run, with plastic armrests and plastic edging on the seat (where it would wear first).
