VINTAGE ONE OF A KIND ARMCHAIR JUNGLE HERMÈS FABRIC

Description
This one-off armchair will bring the allure of tropical landscapes into any decor. The solid walnut frame appears exposed in the two front legs and in the softly-sinuous armrests lacquered in black, while the seat and the towering backrest extending to the floor are both padded with polyurethane foam and wrapped in a jungle-themed Limited Edition Hermès upholstery treated with resin and enlivened by pink pipings. Pink velvet covers the back

Hermès introduces fourteen patterns, each created by a different designer and largely inspired by the company’s archival designs for silk scarves. From Hugo Grygkar’s trompe l’oeil bookshelves to Jean-Louis Clerc’s day at the races, “this collection reveals the passion Hermès has for telling stories,” says Florence Lafarge, creative director of Art de Vivre. Equateur (above), designed by naturalist painter Robert Dallet in the 1980s, features an exotic array of flora and fauna. As Lafarge observes, “The strength of the details allows us to travel through this wild and mysterious world.”
