Structure in matt black painted metal, seat and backrest in Polyurethane foam upholstered in leather and armrest in glossy solid walnut wood. Detailing in polished brass and glossy solid walnut wood.
Inspired by a classic seating solution found in Lebanese residences of the past, the Chaise Maurice armchair evokes a bygone era through its refined lines and timeless charm. Although it remains a familiar piece in Lebanon, it is slowly fading from collective memory. The armchair’s intriguing mechanics, particularly how the backrest adapts seamlessly to various seating positions, make it a design worth revisiting. The result is a carefully crafted composition that intertwines different elements with brass accents and solid walnut wood details, giving the piece a nostalgic character. This reinterpretation pays homage to the original design while demonstrating how its enduring elegance can continue to enhance contemporary living.
