A little history of the armchair
If the chair is made for work or meals, the armchair was born in the 17th century for a single mission: rest. Its name derives from the Old French "faudesteuil", a folding seat for dignitaries, but it broke free under Louis XV to become this comfort piece equipped with armrests. Unlike the chair, it favors a wider seat and a tilted backrest, inviting conversation rather than rigid posture. Whether it is a "bergère" with full cheeks to shelter from drafts or a lighter "bridge" armchair, it embodies the evolution of the art of living.
