Luchino

An object of undisputed functionality, the folding chair can boast a thousand years of history. Originally used as a field chair, with the expansion of the film industry it gained iconic status as a director’s chair, thanks to its ease of transport between sets. Its legendary qualities – comfortable, lightweight and easy to carry – inspired Antonio Citterio and Flexform to give it a new interpretation as the Luchino armchair. Made of solid hand-turned and finished wood, with the seat and backrest in cowhide, the Luchino armchair – available in both dining and lounge versions – features refined joints that enable easy folding and transport. Deceptively simple at first glance, the Luchino armchair reveals exquisite wood craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail in the small metal components that regulate its folding mechanism. A perfect blend of elegance and practicality, the Luchino dining chair is at home with any of the tables in the collection, while the lounge chair fits seamlessly in any living space, by itself or paired with Flexform sofas.
