Two glossy, red plastic chairs. The backs are curved and appear just under a foot in height. It connects without disconnect to the back legs. A rectangle, about the size of a palm, is cut into where the back curves into the seat. The seat is flat and has two symmetric notches carved into the sides. The front of the seat curves down smoothly to the front legs. The legs are flat on the sides and curve at the bottom where they meet the ground. Small silver pieces that appear like screws are at the tips of the legs. The two chairs are positioned pointing to our left, one just behind the other.
