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