English term or phrase: bow-backed chairs
wieder handelt es sich um ein Restaurant, leider ärgert mich dieselbe Stelle noch einmal. Kann mit jemand mit *bow-backed chairs* weiterhelfen? sind das einfach Stühle mit gebogener Lehne?
xxx has Gallic- meets-A-list-New York-style in (champagne) buckets. It retains the high-ceilinged charm of the printworks it once was and mixes it slickly with low-hanging lamps, big mirrors, glossy wood and black *bow-backed chairs*. The elegant black and white floored-bar leads to a busy dining area alive with enjoyment of French classics - duck confit, cassoulet (the plat du jour on Wednesdays), steak tartare... The seafood selection includes crevettes, and a half lobster.

hm, passt wohl doch nicht so ganz für ein Restaurant. Die Kaffehausstühle sehen zwar ähnlich aus, haben aber eine "offene" Lehne.
Hier ein Vergleich:

Windsorstuhl


Explanation:
... oder auch Bow-back-Windsorstuhl. Bei google Bilder bekommt man unter dem Stichwort "bow-backed chair" tatsächlich nur einen Typ von Stuhl mit Streben und einer leicht geschwungenen Außenleiste: http://www.windsor-collection.de/images/Windsor_Stuhl.jpg

Example sentence(s):
  • Windsor Bowback Side Chair - Massive Kirschholz-Windsors einer renommierten Werkstatt in Maine.
  • Biegeformen (siehe auch Holzbiegen): Bow-back-Windsorstuhl, 171; Comb-back-Windsorstuhl...
