Black imitation leather chairs on metal feet, covered by a black plastic shell. They stand on round black tulip feet. The shapes recall a wine glass or a capsule, and they’re a fine example of the optimism of the moon-landing years. They are all swiveling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThese are the original early versions with the round tulip foot. In 1969 the range got chrome-plated bases with crossed legs and was renamed Paris, Tours, Nice and Menton. Those later versions are often confused with these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Luna is the wider of the two models. It has a deeper, rounded tub shape with wrap-around armrests. The three Polaris chairs are more upright, with a pointed back and a loose round seat cushion. Together they make a striking dining set, or a statement group in a lounge, bar or office.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePolaris: Diameter: 50cm - Height: 72cm - Seating height: 46cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLuna (W x D x H): 63 x 50 x 70cm - seating height: 46cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood vintage condition, with signs of age and use that fit the period.
