This chair has a high back and a plain crest rail, with armrests connected to it horizontally, giving it a circular shape. A single upright pillar connects the rear leg to the center of the backrest, which is supported by connecting crossbars on either side. The side legs are connected to the seat and armrests in a streamlined gooseneck shape on both sides. The seat is grooved with panel inserts that are recessed with a slightly raised center, creating a diamond shape. There are corners at the back, left, and right sides, while the front side is curved and connected to one leg. There are angular teeth between the seat and the straight legs, which have plain feet.
