Cavallo Armchair, Kvadrat / Raf Simons Cream White Wool with Black Lacquered Frame - Limited Edition

In the beginning: a story of Italian craftsmanship

The fruit of the skilled craftsmanship of our factories in the Italian province of Friuli, our Cavallo armchair is a product of true handiwork. The artisans of the villages in the southeast of the Udine province are recognised by their entire trade for the quality of their work.

Every curve, every finish is the result of several days spent in a specialist workshop to ensure a perfect seating . It's the unique horse-shoe shape that gives this armchair its name. Its frame perfectly follows the shape of your spine, to ensure comfortable support .

An ideal finish for a piece that is both classic and modern

The Cavallo armchair is an alliance of canework and curved wood. The perfect balance between the master craftsmanship of our Italian artisans and a timeless design which will fit well into your home:

• Natural cane back : a material that gives the effect of lightness, style and comfort to this armchair

• Structure in ashwood with a cherrywood finish : the single-piece framework ensures quality and sturdiness

• Brass feet : a lustrous material that again recalls the Italian origins of this armchair

The Cavallo armchair with its limited edition Kvadrat / Raf Simons seat upholstery

For some time we had been hoping to join forces with the Kvadrat textile design house for the seat upholstery of The Socialite Family furniture collection . This has now been achieved, with the Kvadrat / Raf Simons textile collection that pays tribute to the matching of colour and textures, in the limited edition upholstery of our signature seating.

From amongst the fabrics created by the Belgian designer we have chosen a bold stripe inspired by Italy , a place forever associated with The Socialite Family and with the childhood of its Founder and Artistic Director Constance Gennari . Luminous and graphic, the geometric design of the wool mix fabric on the Cavallo armchair and bench will bring a summery feel to your home.

The colour palette is a strong one: it includes sunny yellow , intense orange , deep navy blue and, more tranquil, a creamy white self-stripe.

One armchair: endless possibilities

Positioned separately, mixed with other pieces from The Socialite Family or as part of a wholly Cavallo canework suite, our stylish wooden models are instantly at home at a desk, in a bedroom, in a bathroom or as a pair (or more!) around a dining table or a coffee table in the sitting room.

The choice of seat colours lets you seamlessly adapt your armchair to any style of interior decoration . Why not dress it with a Bomboloni cushion to bring out its character and give it a new look?

Choose the wood for its framework and finish, select the seat that will best match the room in your home. The Cavallo will lend itself to your choice of customisation , whatever that may be.
