Modern Classic Elizabeth I Armchair in Carved Wood and Patinated Fine Gold Leaf

About the Item

Inspiration: This is one of the most premium armchairs of Bessa´s collection. Worthy of the grandeur of an empire, it is made with the most premium fabrics on the market, admirably hand-carved and finished in patinated 22k gold leaf. Its unique and imperial look suggests a close relationship with one of the most famous queens of England and Ireland, Elizabeth I. In fact, this art & design armchair is inspired by the Elizabethan period, marked by a strong movement of renewal in the arts. We recreated an armchair in a classic style but we introduced a radical change by renewing the styles between the back and the seat, making the armchair a unique piece of art. But the link is not only made to the reign of Elizabeth I and is also inspired by the queen herself, known for a strong, independent and assertive personality. These qualities are transferred to the armchair, an independent piece that does not need any complement to assert its importance in any environment. The Elizabeth I armchair will always be a unique and central piece, at times contested for its boldness, but always highly esteemed and respected just like the Queen. The grandeur of the Elizabethan reign is transferred to this piece, which when placed in an environment enhances and ennobles any decoration. Materials: Hand-carved solid beech wood, Patinated 22k fine gold leaf, Backrest fabric (61% cotton + 39% silk), Seat (bouclé fabric). Dimensions: W 97cm (38.19"), H 113cm (44.49"), D 86cm (33.86") NOTE: All Bessa pieces can be customized, upon request.
