The result is a seat with a gracefully curved form that evokes the wings of a butterfly. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vitra","offers":[{"title":"Maple","offer_id":20766395007087,"sku":"VIT-20137001","price":590.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Palisander","offer_id":20766395039855,"sku":"VIT-20137002","price":760.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/4966\/8207\/files\/vitra-sori-yanagi-butterfly-stool-18.jpg?v=1734104508","url":"https:\/\/www.twentytwentyone.mom\/products\/vitra-sori-yanagi-butterfly-stool","provider":"twentytwentyone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
