The Renaissance armchair is a testament to the timeless appeal of ancient Roman design. Ishkildina's inspiration came from the Curule Seat, a symbol of high magistracy in Ancient Rome. Legend has it that the first golden Curule chair was gifted to Gaius Julius Caesar. The X-shaped legs of the Curule Seat form the basis of the Renaissance armchair's design, lending it a unique and stylish appeal.
What sets the Renaissance apart is its versatility. Its minimalistic and modern shape allows it to seamlessly fit into both public and private interiors. Whether it's a restaurant terrace, a library, or a home, the Renaissance armchair adds a touch of elegance and sophistication.
The armchair is crafted from a stainless steel thin tube, with modules welded around the axis. The technical specifications of the armchair are w850mm x d700mm x h700mm sitting 410 mm, making it a comfortable and stylish seating option. The armchair's design and construction reflect Ishkildina's commitment to quality and attention to detail.
The Renaissance armchair was conceptualized in March 2011 in Russia. Ishkildina's design philosophy is rooted in the belief that "all new is forgotten old." This is evident in the Renaissance armchair, where she revives an ancient design and gives it a modern twist.
