"Basket is one of Gaber’s most versatile furniture series. The many colors, materials, upholstery and frame options are a particularly strong feature that allow this collection to be suitable for multiple purposes. But the Basket Chair is first and foremost strikingly good looking. An armchair characterized by an elegant graphic composition based on alternations of full and empty spaces, conferring a strong personality, making it rich and at the same time delicate. The Basket Chair is inspired by the traditional wicker containers from which the designer extrapolated the principal structural lines to create a new decorative object; a comfortable “container to sit in”; capable of chara cterizing its surrounding environment, especially from the rhythmic play that creates volume from the removal of its parts. The Basket Chair is suitable for indoor and outdoor use; from conference to break-out; from formal offices to more relaxed lounges. Choose from: cantilever or traditional sled frames, four-blade with swivel options, four wooden legs or modern plastic co-injected steel legs. And the classic 4-legged metal frame, painted in 6 different colors. Also available is a special upholstered and non-slip removable cushion, creating an original contrast between plastic and fabric materials. "
