Deville Armchair
Summary
The Happy armchair features an unique seat back made up of a metal frame embellished with a sophisticated and entirely hand-woven open-weave design made with cowhide cord. The soft, goose-down-filled seat and seat back cushions offer striking visual contrast to the understated yet elegant metal structure. The couture tailoring of the upholstery is accented by tone-on-tone or contrasting color grosgrain piping.

Type Chair / Story
A contemporary take on the classic bistro set, Julien Renault’s Deville Armchair reinterprets a familiar typology for today’s outdoor life. Defined by its generous proportions and softly curved frame, the chair balances durability with an open, welcoming character – an invitation to sit, linger, and enjoy time outside. Crafted from at least 60% post-consumer recycled aluminium, the rust-resistant chair is built to last while remaining easy to move and rearrange. Stackable and offered in a variety of colours, the Deville Armchair balances practicality with quiet nostalgia, adapting easily to balconies, patios, cafés, terraces, and gardens.
