Details

Mikado not only aims to impress by its serene yet commanding silhouette but also through its unparalleled comfort. The Mikado seating experience is defined by upholstery on all sides together with a dynamic movement of the backrest. A mechanism concealed beneath the seat allows the back to move with the sitter and comfortably recline at a slight angle.
