A brief history of the armchair
While chairs are made for work or dining, the armchair emerged in the 17th century with a single mission: rest. Its name derives from the Old French "faudesteuil," a folding seat for dignitaries, but it became independent under Louis XV to become the comfortable piece of furniture equipped with armrests that we know today. Unlike the chair, it favors a wider seat and a reclined backrest, inviting conversation rather than rigid posture. Whether it is a "bergère" with full sides to shelter from drafts or a lighter "bridge" armchair, it embodies the evolution of the art of living.
