Catifa 53 is the original: the inspiration that extends to the Arper brand itself. The graceful curved seat and sleek profile are the ultimate synthesis of conceptual purity through the reduction of the superfluous. Made for both residential and contract use, the Catifa 53 is a true jack of all trades.
