A little history of the chair
In the Middle Ages, sitting on a seat with a backrest was a rare privilege, reserved for the one who led the assembly: the "president" (from the Latin praesidere, to be seated in front). For a long time a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the people, the chair only became democratized in the 18th century to become an everyday object. It is distinguished from the armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to offer total freedom of movement around a table or a desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
