Abstract: A folding article of furniture including parallel pairs of crossed first legs and second legs pivotably joined to each other, first and second arms pivotably joined, respectively, to the top ends of the first and second legs, a first top piece overlaying and joined to the distal portion of the first arms, a second top piece overlaying and joined to the distal portions of the second arms and a brace transversely joining the lower portion of the first legs. A back assembly, which converts the article to a chair, is pivotably joined to the distal ends of the first arms and includes a lower end portion which engages the brace and the first legs to limit pivoting of the back assembly. In some forms, a handle joins the proximal ends of corresponding arms.
