About Vani Cathaoir
Dearadh an Cathaoir Vani bunaithe ar theicnící coimhisiúnachta Lochlannach, le cúisín inmheánach a thacaíonn leis an lombar i gceart, oibríonn sé i dtimpeallachtaí seomra bia agus mar chathaoir uillinne do spásanna beaga, ag coigeartú de réir riachtanas an úsáideora. Is é an smaoineamh táirge a bharrfheabhsaíonn an spás in éineacht le teicnící na siúinéireachta Brasaílí agus Lochlannach, ag ceilt chuid iomlán na hailse, ag baint leasa as an gcumhacht theicneolaíoch, scrúdaíonn sé meaisínú casta ionas go bhfuil an líneacht le fáil go foirfe sa táirge.
