This pair of second-hand armchairs made of wood and beige fabric adds a soft, countryside touch. Their wooden structure highlights a simple design, while the seat and backrest adorned with pink and light blue floral patterns create a delicately vintage presence. In a living room or bedroom, they easily accommodate reading, a tea break, or a moment of conversation, with a comfort that invites you to linger. Their balanced proportions allow them to fit around a side table or near a window without overwhelming the space. Tucked into a corner of the living room with a wool blanket and a ceramic table lamp, they make a refined ensemble. Like all vintage furniture, they bear the marks of their past: a few signs of aging. Width: 56 cm Depth: 40 cm Height: 88 cm Seat height: 44 cm Seat width: 52 cm Seat depth: 52 cm A brief history of the armchair If the chair is made for work or meals, the armchair was born in the 17th century for one sole purpose: rest. Its name derives from the Old French "faudesteuil," a folding seat for dignitaries, but it emancipated under Louis XV to become this comfort piece with armrests. Unlike the chair, it features a wider seat and an inclined backrest, inviting conversation rather than 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.
