Summary

The cream plastic moulded seat is attached to a silver coloured metal frame which forms the legs and base. A beige plastic shaped cushion with a pattern of cream, orange and brown flowers is attached to the seat by plastic studs. A cream nylon strap, with two silver coloured metal rings and a silver coloured metal buckle, is slotted through two holes in the seat back and cushion.
