Construction<br />
Frame:<br />
Stainless steel:<br />
Tubular pre-stressed, pre-buffed 14<br />
gauge stainless steel. Clean, seamless<br />
joints and hidden drilled or countersunk<br />
holes (as opposed to punched) render the<br />
chair free of deformation.<br />
Polished chrome:<br />
11 gauge steel. The mirror<br />
chrome-plating process includes lengthy<br />
nickel and silicone coatings for rust<br />
protection and increased durability. All<br />
chairs are polished to a mirror finish.<br />
Clean, seamless joints and hidden drilled<br />
or countersunk holes (as opposed to<br />
punched) render the chair free of<br />
deformation.<br />
Upholstery:<br />
Inner hardwood frame cushioned with<br />
variable density foam. Dymetrol seat<br />
suspension enhances comfort level.<br />
Replacement seat and backs are not<br />
available on Brno chairs. Tubular Brno<br />
with thin seat (245A, 245AS) has no welt<br />
detail. Tubular Brno with thick seat<br />
(245AT, 245AB) has welt detail on<br />
underside of seat.<br />
Optional glides:<br />
Six clear plastic glides in specially<br />
drilled holes.
