The Bouroullec brothers, a pair of designers with a highly iconic, sophisticated and conceptual style, have designed the transparent polycarbonate Papyrus chair for Kartell.

An admirable marriage of simplicity and refi nement, grace and memory, Papyrus is a remake of the

archetypal antique rush chair, from a time when chair structures were decisive and strong. This chair

combines a translucent support with a slender vertical pebbling, running along the entire outside of the

rounded backrest, with its soft and snug lines.

The seat is comfortable and welcoming, and the entire structure is light.

Papyrus’ wide range of brand-new “old-fashioned” colours make the play of the worked surfaces even

more evident and attractive.
