In an effort to recover the characteristic braided chair so typical of the Mediterranean, Expormim reedits the seating collection “Lapala” a classic by Lievore Altherr Molina Studio. “In her curves and gentle shapes, the sober, light and versatile character is still maintained. This update includes a significant increase in comfort with improved ergonomics, in addition to high performance weather resistance, thanks to being woven with nautical rope on a painted stainless steel frame”.

Collection made of stainless steel tube. Hand-woven seat and backrest with high resistance polyester rope 7 mm/0.27” thick. Legs made of lacquered stainless steel tube. Stackable collection.
