When you've seen chesterfields treated to quilted textures, the shapes created are typically squared, yet this is not what you'll see in the Emily Chair. This endearing armchair with its leather or soft felted fabric features straight lines of stitching that make irregular geometric forms.
Färg & Blanche dreamed up this charming perch for Gärsnäs, becoming a sort of little sister model to the existing Emma easy chair. This version has a wrap-around support like its larger sibling, but it has a lower backrest that makes it a more versatile furnishing. The Emily Chair would be a lovely addition to a living room or a lounge, but also a dining room, an office or a fancy waiting room. It exudes both poise and playfulness simultaneously.
