The four fluted legs resting on balls are combined with the seat rail, which is slightly curved at the front. The horizontal arm-rest joins the support in a scroll with rosette. The supports are decorated with bent acanthus leaves. The back legs are combined with the back, which is carved at the top. The frame of the back and the seat rail show twisted ribbons, typical of early Neo-Classicism.
