CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION Tubular chrome-plated steel frame with plastic-coated gridded sheet for seat and back. Frame composed of a pair of straight stiles, curving back slightly at the top, and a single length of steel running from the foot of both legs, around the sides and back of the seat. The seat and back are each composed of a length of plastic-covered (“Soflex”) grid (with rounded lines), arching slightly upward from side to side.

I love these things. Using plastic coated steel mesh as a flexible seat is so ingenious, especially in the late '70s.
