Molteni – Chelsea small armchair

The Chelsea collection, designed by Rodolfo Dordoni in 2014, is enriched by three new elements: a sofa and an armchair, both characterized by enveloping backs, and a bench. All the elements are designed to create a cozy corner in a large living room, and draw a special space dedicated to conversation and relaxation.

Every single element of the Chelsea collection expresses the value of craftsmanship, which is evident in the processing of raw materials of absolute quality, from wood to fabric to leather, with details made with care and passion, that guarantee a particular charm to these extremely versatile seats.
