About Folded 01 Cathaoir Bhia

Cathaoir bhia is ea Folded 01. Cruthaítear an suíochán agus an droim as bileog amháin d'alúmanam amh, atá lúbtha de láimh. Tugann an cruth fillte righneas don chathaoir chomh maith le héifeacht lúbtha nádúrtha a chuireann le compord. Feistítear an bhileog alúmanaim ar fhráma cruach daite, rud a sholáthraíonn mionsonra caolchúiseach datha. Bhí filleadh nóta páipéir chearnóige mar inspioráid don dearadh, a éiríonn righin nuair a fhilltear é. Tomhaiseann an chathaoir 450 mm ar leithead, 500 mm ar doimhneacht agus 800 mm ar airde. Ba é an aidhm ná filleadh ar bhunbhrí an réada le cuma íostach.
