The armchairs feature a sculptural, slightly flared silhouette, with high, enveloping backs, rounded armrests, and compact turned wood legs. They are upholstered in a refined combination of blue velvet and textured blue chenille, creating a sophisticated contrast between the smooth front surfaces and the richly woven side and back panels.
