An armchair is an architecture in miniature — a composition of frame, proportion and touch. In the hands of heritage ateliers, these forms become enduring works of design. Jean-Marie Massaud’s iconic Archibald for Poltrona Frau pairs enveloping comfort with poised, contemporary lines, while Rossella Pugliatti’s Hug armchair for Giorgetti offers a sculptural embrace in timber and upholstery. Bouclé, full-grain leather and fine linen from Italy’s heritage textile houses dress these designer armchairs and occasional chairs, their silhouettes ranging from the measured poise of mid-century modernism to the calm geometry of contemporary Italian minimalism. Some stand alone as statements; others settle into the room as if they have always belonged. Every Italian armchair in our collection is shaped for repose and for presence — a point where craft, comfort and character meet, and the room quietly gathers around it.
