I just got an early Bertoia side chair that has some aluminum tabs as pictured. What was their function? Also, this chair seems to pre-date the use of Rilsan coating, as it appears that it is just paint on the metal. It has a nice patina and I think I am going to just give it a good clean.

I believe they were used for reinforcement.  I have typically found them on chairs with covers.
