Model

Upholstery

Compact yet confidently architectural, the Elain armchair by Molteni&C distils structure down to a sculptural interplay of curved lines and softened volume. Its enveloping shell—formed by a gently arched backrest and low, rounded seat—establishes a visual rhythm suited to gallery-like bedrooms, lounge corners, or reception interiors.

Upholstered in refined leathers or textural fabrics, Elain rests on a fixed base or concealed swivel, offering discreet motion without compromising its purity of form. Crafted with couture-level precision and tailored edges, this designer lounge armchair brings intimacy and focus to contemporary interiors where space, scale, and materiality converge.
