About the Item

Early 20th-century vintage armchair with a solid carved wooden frame, newly restored in luxurious Pierre Frey fabric. The chair combines rich red velvet along the arms and base with intricately embroidered panels across the backrest, seat, and cushion. The contrast of textures and colours highlights its sculptural form while elevating it with Pierre Frey’s renowned textile design expertise. The deep red velvet adds warmth and drama, while the embroidery introduces fine detail and sophistication. This one-of-a-kind piece reflects a meticulous approach to restoration, where every element is carefully considered to honour the chair’s original character while reimagining it for contemporary interiors. It’s a perfect example of how vintage craftsmanship and modern luxury can coexist in harmony. Materials: Solid wood, velvet, Pierre Frey fabric. Style: Vintage meets modern elegance.
