About the Item

Designed by Romeo Sozzi, founder of the renowned Italian atelier Promemoria, the “Rebecca” chair exemplifies the brand’s devotion to craftsmanship and ingenious design. Handcrafted in 2018, this piece transforms seamlessly from an elegant side chair into a practical set of step ladders—a modern reinterpretation of the classic library chair. Constructed from solid beech wood and finished in a greige toned high shine lacquer, the chair is distinguished by smooth, undulating lines and expertly engineered brushed nickel hardware. Its sculptural silhouette and discreet folding mechanism reflect Promemoria’s meticulous attention to both aesthetic and functional detail. Standing 92 cm tall, with a width of 41 cm and a depth of 46 cm, the chair remains compact yet highly versatile, making it a refined addition to a dressing room, office, or library. Originally purchased in 2018, the piece has never been used, only displayed, and remains in excellent ex-display condition with minimal surface wear consistent with gentle cleaning and polishing. A fine example of contemporary Italian design, the “Rebecca” chair demonstrates how artistry and innovation can elevate even the most utilitarian object into a piece of functional beauty.
