The Calice armchair owes its name and shape to the ancient sacred cups revered as objects of desire and the subject of many tales of knighthood.
The result of designer Patrick Norguet’s high-minded work on simplicity, this armchair is a pure expression of
geometry: a sphere resting on a single leg, like a chalice, both sacred and precious. Made elegant and comfortable by the interlocking effect and the many details incorporated at the juncture between the seat and the leg, this design makes for an elegant addition to any room and a celebration of all types of settings, from private residences to hotel interiors.
Base available with a cross-shaped structure or with four legs, in black metal or champagne color.
Patrick Norguet approaches objects and design from a graphical perspective. Since childhood,
he has preferred sketchbooks to textbooks, filling them up with sketches and drawings. A “handson” approach of industry and design studies in Paris (ESDI) mark the unusual profile of this
constructive rebel. His career underwent a dramatic change in 2000 when Giulio Cappellini spotted his
now famous Rainbow Chair.
He joined the circle of designers that matter and created his Parisian studio. Since that time, he has been designing for major producers and renowned
brands. Drawing inspiration from everything that surrounds him, Patrick Norguet does not follow
trends but seeks to give shape to products whose relevance and modernity would withstand the test
of time.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
