The workshop where it was born ("Fabbrica Mobili Imbottiti" see label) was located at that time in Crusinallo di Omegna in Piedmont (Italy); in the last sixty years, Crusinallo has become the cradle of the industry, hosting in its territories very important companies such as F.lli Piazza, Alfonso Bialetti, Lagostina and Alessi. The armchair has been delivered, in recent times, to an old Master craftsman of Prato, who has handmade with skill and precision the new cover; we want to remember that the city of Prato is considered the largest textile center in the world, its craftsmen and companies, highly specialized, are a reference point for creativity, quality, and excellence. The Master has used a strong velvet with a very particular color: octanium. The color octanium takes its name from the blue and green hue characteristic of the Eurasian duck. Born in the late '50s, the color octanium first made its arrival in the fashion industry, through the combination of turquoise and petrol, and was later adopted by the design world for its versatility and pleasant aura. The color octanium, in fact, combines perfectly with other colors and lends itself to different styles of homes: from traditional to modern. In the world of color theory, teal represents communication and clarity of thought, a philosophy that can be incorporated into your life. Our armchair has taken on a personal and unrepeatable charm, becoming a discreet and original piece of furniture, capable of creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, giving romanticism and sophistication to any type of decor.
