The Sir armchair seems fit for royalty. A rich design, it is a statement seat that begs to be revered and then, of course, sat upon.
Designed by Carlo Colombo for Nube, the Sir armchair is available in various finishes. I am however, particularly drawn to the dramatic, dark chocolate version. With its traditional upholstered seat and wood-wrapped exterior, it harks back to another era without compromising its contemporary appeal.
