Sleek and light, Vol au Vent is a new chair made of a single material with a full covering, completely padded with a single piece of stamped foam. The look of this versatile piece can be changed by switching the specially designed removable upholstery, which is available in classic fabric, natural leather or synthetic fabric. Offering a look that is a balance between bulkiness and sleekness, Vol au Vent is, once again, a bridge between tradition and modern trends. Vol au vent is available in two sizes. The larger version can be equipped with armrests.
