Material Details and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Steel and Pre-Galvanized Sheet Metal Frame

The Round table and the Mia chair frame are made of steel treated with industrial hot-dip painting systems. The table top, in particular, is made of a pre-galvanized sheet metal sheet that ensures deep protection against rust.
Metal Maintenance: For routine cleaning of painted metal surfaces, we recommend using a soft cloth dampened with cold or warm water and neutral, non-abrasive liquid detergents. Avoid using metal brushes, abrasive sponges, or harsh chemicals (such as acid or chlorine degreasers) that could scratch the finish. During the winter months when the set is not in use for extended periods, we recommend cleaning it and storing it in a dry, closed place.

2. Aluminum Seat of the Mia Chairs

To optimize the weight and functionality of the Mia chair, architect Jean Nouvel designed a seat made entirely of painted aluminum. This metal is naturally immune to oxidation and rust, ensuring a sturdy yet lightweight chair that's easy to lift and move around the dining area. The same rules apply to seat maintenance as for neutral detergents used for steel.

Benefits and Design

• Jean Nouvel's Architectural Signature: The Mia chair brings a rigorous and essential signature graphic style to the outdoor space. Its clean lines interact perfectly with the minimalist geometry of the Round table, offering a timeless furnishing combination of high artistic value.
• Modular Extension System (Up to 268 cm): Thanks to the double extension system, each 54 cm long, the table easily extends from 160 cm to a full 268 cm in length. This allows the set's chairs to comfortably accommodate up to eight guests during convivial lunches and dinners.
• Windproof Strength and Robustness: With a table weight of 76 kg, the dining area guarantees exceptional stability even in the presence of strong drafts on panoramic terraces or open gardens, while the mix of steel and aluminum offers impeccable mechanical performance.
• Sf CushionsRemovable Practical: The optional square cushion (Code C/703) increases seating comfort while maintaining maximum ease of use: the integrated zipper allows you to remove the cover in just a few moments for regular washing.

FAQ

How many extensions does the Round table have and where do they store?
The table has two extensions, each 54 cm long. The modular system allows the top to be extended to 214 cm using just one seat, or to reach the maximum extension of 268 cm using both, depending on the number of guests.

Why does the Mia chair combine steel and aluminum in its structure?
This material choice combines the strengths of both metals: the steel supporting structure guarantees the necessary rigidity and stability for the chair, while the aluminum seat panel ensures total protection in the areas of greatest contact and lightens the overall weight of the seat (only 5.5 kg).

How do you attach the optional cushions to the Mia chairs to prevent them from slipping?
The square EMU cushions (Code C/703) are specifically designed with a simple and intuitive integrated fastening system (using ties or straps), which allows them to be securely attached to the Mia chair frame so they remain stable during use and do not move in the wind.
