This pair of second-hand red and black faux leather armchairs brings a perfectly embraced vintage touch to a living room or an office. Their two-tone upholstery highlights a contemporary look, while the faux leather offers a smooth feel and a graphic presence that easily matches with a wooden coffee table or a solid rug. The seat comfortably accommodates moments of reading or conversation, with a height designed for everyday use. One can easily imagine these two armchairs set up around a floor lamp, creating a simple and refined relaxation corner. There is a small discreet flaw to note on one of the armrests.

Its name derives from the Old French “faudesteuil,” a folding seat of dignitaries, but it emancipated itself under Louis XV to become this comfort piece with armrests. Unlike the chair, it favors a wider seat and a reclined 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.
