Alt Text

A three-dimensional model of a wooden dining chair with a trapezoidal seat covered in woven green wood. The chair's frame has been stained to a medium brown, while the green wood weaving of the seat is a light orange-brown color, adding contrast. The chair's back has two horizontal slats across it for support, and there are a total of seven round, horizontal rods between the chair's legs for stability and support. Eight annotations have been added to the model, which the viewer can click on to provide additional information. The model can be rotated, moved, and zoomed in and out to allow for viewing of additional details at multiple angles.
