information on, Aarnio kindly gave me some information through his manufacturers and says that they were probabaly made by a company called Zevi and were originally produced by Mobel Italia...I can find very little info on eiether manufacturer. I have seen these chairs before but never in brass, any info would be great, thanks , Heath
