Fontainebleau Outdoor Chair

The Fontainebleau Outdoor Chair has been created by José Lévy for the brand Serax. The designer is known for pieces that are practical and poetic at the same time. The whimsical or light touch is often the most unique detail in his designs.

The Fontainebleau Outdoor Chair is made of powder-coated steel. The chair has a wide, round backrest. It is framed within a tubular bar and is slightly reclined. It has a mesh-like design with small round openings. The pattern is repeated on the seat. It is square which creates a play of shapes against the round backrest. The openings give the chair a breezy, airy look that works well for the outdoors. They also serve the function of draining rainwater away so it doesn't pool on the surfaces and cause corrosion. The whimsy of this piece is the armrests. Made of tubular rods as well, they have been placed at a slant that gives the chair a quirky, playful look. The legs also have the form of sturdy, round bars and they have gliders underneath.

The Fontainebleau Outdoor Chair has a width of 52cm, a height of 82cm, a depth of 50.5cm and an armrest height of 42cm. It is available in neutral and earthy colours.
