Encore, founded in Italy in 2005, designs contemporary seating that draws its vocabulary from the natural world. The Stone Armchair — an Italian design armchair handcrafted in Italy — translates the unhurried erosion of river stones into a single, enveloping form. Broad, soft, and unmistakably sculptural, it belongs to a lineage of pieces where comfort is inseparable from artistic intent.

Every curve echoes water-smoothed rock: continuous, uninterrupted, free of sharp geometry. Bouclé textile wraps the entire silhouette, lending a tactile warmth that invites contact and amplifies the organic character of the shape. Achieving these flowing contours demands precise internal construction — each frame engineered so the seamless exterior never hints at the craftsmanship holding it together. The result is a seat that feels carved rather than assembled.

At 130 × 120 × 80 cm, the Stone Armchair carries generous, oversized proportions that reward unhurried reading, quiet conversation, or simply settling in. It anchors a bedroom corner, commands attention in a living room, or defines a private retreat within a larger open-plan space. Encore offers made-to-order finishes, allowing fabric and colour to be specified for alignment with an existing material palette — a detail that makes the piece as adaptable as it is distinctive.

Frequently asked questions

Can the Stone Armchair be ordered in a different fabric or colour?
Yes. Encore produces each piece to order, so upholstery and finish can be tailored to your project. Contact us to discuss available textile options and lead times.

How much space should I allow for this armchair?
With a 130 cm width, it occupies more floor area than a standard accent chair. Allow at least 160 cm of clear wall width to let the sculptural profile breathe. It performs well as a solo statement piece in bedrooms, reading areas, or living rooms.
