About Skate Alu Outdoor Chair
With a laid-back personality, this furniture collection is suitable for outdoor use. The curved seat of the lounge chair and bench draws inspiration from a skateboard. Its round and curled-up sides give it grace and comfort, leaving the lounger unaware of its seating. An aluminium powder-coated frame and a polyolefin rope finish make the furniture durable, outdoor-proof and weather-resistant. The materials are lightweight, easily separated, and can be recycled after use.
