Initially known as the model B3 and it was influenced by Marcel's Adler Bicycle which had bent handlebars. View the wonderful images of this design by searching “Adler bicycle” in Google. 3 mm thick steel frame, 6 mm thick pure cowhide leather, and high strength load-bearing bolts are used in this design, similar to original, to withstand the structural rigors. Similar to the forward and backward flowing shape of a bicycle, The B3 chair has a bent tubular steel chromed frame.

I am pretty sure that the Platner Dining chair I bought from Our Furniture may just be my very favorite thing now. I literally sit in it all the time. It is so beautiful. I am going to buy another to go with it.
