Platea Armchair
The Pianca Platea Armchair by Emilio Nanni reinterprets the traditional bergère with a wide, high back and a comparatively slim profile.
Blanket stitching follows the upholstery, while a tubular base traces the outer form and ends in brass feet. Fabric or leather coverings and contrasting base finishes define the chair, with a matching footstool available separately.
Every detail, considered.
