The team at Liang and Eimil are well-known for their bold inventiveness, but this Joel occasional chair proves they understand that there is always space and demand for classic design. The cubic shape with backrest and arms forming a single-height, three-sided surround echoes the stylish opulence of pre- and post-Second World War furnishings.

The tapered legs and solid wooden frame in a rich wenge-coloured finish give a solid grounding to the lavishly padded seat, upholstered in a warm beige chenille with button tufting on every surface. It is generous, comfortable, wonderfully supportive, and perfect for curling up and relaxing but with loads of aesthetic appeal.
