Inspired by Rome's iconic Coliseum, this chair encapsulates the timeless beauty of history’s awe-inspiring architectural wonders. Strategic cuts adorn the sides, reminiscent of Roman detailing, lending depth and allowing air and water to flow through. This makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The ergonomic design offers optimal comfort with a contoured seat and backrest. Its sleek silhouette complements any contemporary space. Slide’s expertise shines through in the Coliseum Chair, blending artistic inspiration and practicality, making it a focal point in any space.
