For a long time, it was a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the common people, and the chair only became democratized in the 18th century, turning into an everyday object. It is distinguished from an armchair by its lack of armrests, a structure designed to offer total freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest for lightness and durability, it has evolved from sculpted solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
