Its name, almost onomatopoeic, evokes the softness of its stuffing, which allowed ladies to sit without wrinkling their voluminous gowns, unlike chairs with rigid backs. At its peak during the Second Empire, it was a symbol of unembarrassed bourgeois comfort, often adorned with luxurious trimmings that brushed the floor.
