Volitge

Volitge

Didier Gomez revisits the wing chair with the Voltige model.This piece signals a very contemporary archetype.From the original wing chair model, first seen around 1720, he retains the padded back, the cushioned seat, and the low armrests that allow space for the panniered skirts of the time.The armrests, which concave, bring a note of softness which contrasts with the taut lines of the structure and cushion.
