This design is inspired by African seats, hence the name "Congo". This copy comes from the original owners who bought the furniture piece in the mid -1950s. The armchair is in an original very neat and beautifully used vintage condition and immediately ready for use. The beautiful light colorful fabric is a heavy quality furniture fabric that has been professionally applied in recent decades.
