Length: 57 cm Width: 50 cm Height: 84 cm Seat height: 36 cm Seat width: 57 cm Seat depth: 50 cm A brief history of the armchair If the chair is made for work or dining, the armchair was born in the 17th century with a singular mission: rest. Its name derives from the Old French "faudesteuil," a folding seat for dignitaries, but it emancipated itself under Louis XV to become this comfortable piece of furniture equipped with armrests. Unlike the chair, it favors a wider seat and a reclined backrest, inviting conversation rather than a stiff posture. Whether it is a "bergère" with full cheeks to shield against drafts or a lighter "bridge" chair, it embodies the evolution of the art of living.
