Francis is a roomy easy chair for drinking Americanos or wine, reading novels or browsing magazines, and engaging in pleasing conversations. Taking inspiration from estuaries and smoothed over river rocks, borrowing techniques used for boat building, the solid wood frame of the Francis Easy Chair is fluid with curves, round overs, and scallops. Its limbs congregate tightly in the chair profile, spinning outward, joined together with solid wood laminations that embrace the upholstered shells of the seat and backrest.
