For a long time, it symbolized prestige compared to the benches and stools of the people, and the chair did not become democratic until the 18th century, turning into an everyday object. It differs from the armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to offer complete freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it has evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
