This vintage theater chair made of light wood and iron adds a countryside touch to the entrance, with the authenticity of an antique piece designed to accompany daily life. Its seat height is perfect for moments of putting on shoes, while its measured depth makes it an easy-to-slot extra seat in a corridor or an entryway. The structure combines wood and iron in a simple style, highlighted by the light wood color that softens the overall look. The seats close automatically when not in use, emphasizing its original mechanism. Positioned near a mirror with a shoe basket, it creates a neat welcome. As a second-hand piece, it carries the marks of its past: a few woodworm holes.

A little history of the armchair: While the chair is made for work or meals, the armchair was born in the 17th century for a single purpose: rest. Its name derives from the Old French "faudesteuil," a folding seat of dignity, but it emancipated under Louis XV to become this comfort piece with armrests. Unlike the chair, it prioritizes a wider seat and an inclined backrest, inviting conversation rather than a rigid posture. Whether it's a "bergère" with full cheeks to shelter from drafts or a lighter "bridge" armchair, it embodies the evolution of the art of living.
