The Greta armchair is a modern chair with upholstered armrests. Its uniqueness lies in the division between the seat part and the wrap-around cushion, which joins the back to the armrests. This hollow structure makes the cushion very large and comfortable, decorated with four stitches that create a soft and refined capitonné effect.
The floating backrest on this designer armchair is also soft and comfortable, consisting of a curved, contoured cylinder that wraps around the back, ending in comfortable upholstered armrests.
An intriguing interplay of contrasts is created between the seat and the base, superimposing soft and metallic materials, solid and empty volumes, cosy and sharp contours. The three slender legs are formed by metal tubes with an elliptical cross-section, finished in textured varnish in a variety of elegant shades to match the wide range of fabrics and leathers in the sample collection.
The central leg at the back of this modern dining armchair is actually two legs placed close together to create a single point of support. The vertical space in the centre plays on the concept of solid and empty spaces between the backrest and seat. The result is a cohesive design that conveys an overall feeling of lightness and balance.
