The armchair is distinguished by its ergonomic and enveloping silhouette. The circular backrest is elegantly adorned with decorative arched stitching, enhancing its geometric shape and visual softness. The wide and deep seat features a padded cushion that follows an ergonomic curve, designed for superior comfort. The base features a distinctive fork shape, covered in the same material as the seat, which provides stability and a dynamic profile.

The upholstery is crafted from high-quality black full-grain leather, characterized by a soft texture and a natural patina that enriches the piece. The decorative stitching on the backrest and the precision of the upholstery demonstrate the high attention to detail and sartorial craftsmanship.
