The design of this armchair brings together seemingly discordant elements that combine to create a pleasing contrast: the swivel tripod base in die-cast aluminium, equipped with a visible damping mechanism, and the enveloping Viennese wickerwork shell, held in a frame made of solid beech-wood fashioned by steam bending.

Besides the version with the Vienna straw seat, young lady can be had in a variant upholstered with fabric or leather, a solution that offers greater comfort, improved aesthetics and functional properties, and unmatched versatility.
