2 folding advertising chairs by Lerolin Thiene Italy

Pair of folding armchairs with the effigy of the french brand topy which exists since the 30s. They are very similar to the model produced by the italian company lerolin in thiene, italy in the 80s. So I imagine they were made by this company for the topy brand, perhaps to be used on the brand's booths at trade shows. Indeed, folding, light and very strong, they are easily transported and stored. Thus, they can now be easily used in the garden or camping. The other advantage is that you can easily remove seat and backrest to wash them, which I did before offering them here (no screw, just a flexible rod that slips into the structure for the seat). They are not quite identical: in addition to the red edging, the fabric is not the same, that of one seems less synthetic, more natural, linen perhaps. Perhaps they are not quite from the same era. They are in good general condition, still very solid, but do not hide their age: small marks and missing on the red lacquer of the structure, a rod is slightly bent on one (without questioning the strength of the chair, see the last two photos), a cover closing the tubular metal of the backrest is damaged. Unfolded, they measure 79 cm high (backrest), 45 cm seat height, 50 cm wide, 46 cm deep. Folded, their size is 79 cm by 46 cm by 10 cm. They each weigh between 2 and 3 kg.
