Description“I told you about Gavina and Breuer. Now that you are looking at the S64, I’ll finish the tale. I wanted to buy two of these chairs from that courteous woman who had let me stretch out on the chaise longue without being a psychoanalyst. She felt vulgar just telling me prices, so she added a story: ‘It was Mr. Gavina who suggested that architect Breuer could choose the name Cesca, short for Francesca, the name of his adopted daughter.‘ “
