About the Item

Part of the Lui collection of stunning modular armchairs, this piece celebrates the rigor and harmony of geometry with a unique structure in matte black lacquered wood that uses the pentagon as a primary element. From the pentagonal seat (40 cm high) stem two armrests and the backseat, also pentagonal, that opens up like a delicate flower and expands to create a comfortable and striking headrest. Entirely covered with Viennese cane, this piece combines traditional materials with a contemporary aesthetic for a piece of strong visual impact that will be eye-catching in any room.
