peer agreement (net): +1padded with backs and seats, tacked with fringes Explanation: Capitonat: padded. This helps to protect. Reblat: tacked. Very often used in the context of furniture containing fabric. "Fringe" can be used for ornamental things, eg rugs or the bottom of some seats. Since what you're looking for is the words themselves I have translated the phrase literally but I suggest you change the structure since it now looks rather strange.

peer agreement (net): +2chairs with padded backs and seats, adorned with fringe (and standing on very short legs). Explanation: Although the original repeats seient, I think repeating seat adds to the general confusion of the sentence. Hope this helps. =) |
