Description from the seller

An upholstered chair with a classic, scenographic character, reinterpreted with the material and color sensibility typical of Rubelli.

The frame is distinguished by a tall, slender backrest, slightly contoured, which follows the line of the spine with elegance and verticality, giving the whole piece a strong yet harmonious presence.

The seat, wide and generously padded, presents a soft, rounded profile that interacts with the base, creating a compact and welcoming volume.

The detail of the two buttons on the back introduces a touch of capitonné work, discreet yet meaningful, enriching the surface without weighing it down.

The velvet upholstery, in an intense deep red, highlights the textile quality and Rubelli's ability to valorize light through color and material. The velvety surface creates changing reflections that lend visual dynamism and refinement.

The base features dark-wood legs finely shaped, with a fluid and slightly curved silhouette that recalls a classic tradition reinterpreted in a contemporary key. This contrast between the richness of the upholstery and the sturdiness of the wooden frame defines the piece's identity.

Overall, the chair represents a balance between decorative elegance and comfort, ideal for sophisticated interiors where the fabric becomes the protagonist and a distinctive element of the interior design.
