Whether placed in a living room, a lounge, or as an unexpected highlight in a curated interior, this new collection invites a renewed dialogue between design and experience, offering, in each piece, a new perspective.
The Bette Stool personifies the unwavering spirit of Bette Davis through an assertive, sculptural silhouette. Wrapped in a high-tactile, rust-toned velvet, its robust form possesses a physical presence that anchors any room, echoing the poise of an actress who commanded the screen without saying a word. It is a piece of substance, designed for those who seek design that refuses to go unnoticed.
Its character reveals itself at the base, where a sequence of brass spheres punctuates a scalloped hemline. These metallic details evoke the bold studs of a period costume and act as the “eyes” of the piece, capturing the magnetic gaze that defined Davis’s career. This fusion of ornamental detail and rounded volume transforms the stool into a design object with both soul and history.
The Myrna Stool is a modern tribute to the avant-garde spirit of Myrna Loy, an icon whose intelligence and charm never needed to shout to be heard. Just like the actress herself, this stool exclaims a sharp-witted elegance, effortlessly stepping away from clichés to embrace a style that feels perpetually ahead of its time.
Its design is a rhythmic masterpiece of texture and form. Featuring a series of tailored, upholstered vertical tubes, the Myrna Stool creates a sense of structured grace, while the bold, patterned velvet breathes a layer of fearless personality. The silhouette is anchored by a daring base of solid lacquered wood spheres, a geometric detail that transforms a functional seat into a sculptural statement.
The Pola Stool is a powerful exercise in theatrical glamour, much like its namesake, Pola Negri. Abandoning simple textures, this deluxe stool proudly embraces a grand botanical pattern on lush velvet, a nod to the quiet but undeniable opulence Negri brought from Europe to Hollywood.
An intricate floral landscape creates a plush, floating volume, elegantly anchored by a robust cross-shaped base. This deep lacquered foundation provides a sharp geometric counterpoint, balancing the fluid romance of the botanical patterns with a bold, modern stability.
Combining a dramatic pattern with a fearless base, It stands as a sculptural tribute to silent-era glamour, reimagined for the most daring contemporary living spaces.
The Lila Stool draws its inspiration from the “Cinderella of Hollywood,” Lila Lee, whose sweet demeanor and rhythmic elegance defined her presence in silent film. It is a harmonious dialogue between structure and movement, a tribute to the quiet sophistication
found in the Golden Era’s most delicate moments.
The dual silhouette relies on a linked, modular composition that maximizes both intimacy and interaction. This curved form creates an organic dialogue between the two distinct seating areas, offering an innovative approach to lounging. Its body is wrapped in a rich jacquard velvet, adorned with a sophisticated, wavy pattern that introduces a refined visual rhythm. This premium textile is precisely defined by a contrasting velvet piping, tracing the unique shape of the piece and accentuating its sculptural lines.
A tribute to Tamara de Lempicka, the “Baroness with a Brush” whose Art Déco masterpieces celebrated a new age of precision, light, and modern sensuality.
The design unfolds through a fearless architectural dialogue. Its foundation is built on rhythmic, tubular arches crafted from lacquered wood, providing a sculptural strength that anchors the room. This rigid, polished structure finds its counterpoint in a plush, rounded seat upholstered in a rich, embroidered velvet, that softens the industrial sharpness. The seat is detailed with a precise velvet piping, transforming the stool’s structural roots into a jewel-like finish that catches the light with every turn.
More than a seat, the Tamara Stool is a functional sculpture designed for a curated lounge or a definitive aesthetic setting.
The Grace Stool draws its breath from the ethereal poise of Grace Kelly, a woman whose elegance was never performed, but simply possessed.
The design moves away from the usual rigid upholstery structures. Instead, it offers a continuous, organic flow that seems to have been sculpted rather than built, seamlessly combining a robust upholstered wood structure with a rich play of textures. The patterned velvet, with its subtle, almost hidden engravings, invites a closer look without demanding it, while the tactile softness of the suede adds a layer of quiet luxury and depth to its curved silhouette.
Rather than competing for the room’s focus, it enhances the existing harmony, serving as a definitive choice for those who find power in a whisper and value the prestige of a perfectly executed, quiet detail.
