Yiban Yiban refers to Chinese “Half – Half”, which vividly depicted its design characteristics.
Sculptural, warm and inviting, the design is defined by the well-proportioned and elegant frame. With its smooth line and wing-shaped back, Yiban Yiban affords extraordinary comfort, privacy and safe feelings.
One is constantly looking for that other half to make their life complete. Yiban Yiban, with its creative design and delicate craftsmanship, is that other half to make your home complete.
