The Vendôme Daybed by Hugues Chevalier distills decades of French design into a single, quietly commanding form. Founded in 1978, the Parisian house has built its reputation on upholstered pieces that carry the discipline of haute couture into interior architecture. This French designer daybed is the expression of that lineage — restrained in proportion, exacting in detail.

What distinguishes the Vendôme is its saddle stitching, a technique drawn from the traditions of fine leather goods. Each stitch locks into the next, creating seams that are as structural as they are decorative — clean, raised lines that trace the contours of the upholstery with quiet authority. Below, a sculpted metal base lifts the silhouette off the floor, lending visual lightness to a piece built for lasting use. Three finishes — bronze, chrome, and dark chrome — allow the base to echo or contrast the hardware already present in a room.

At 142 × 64 × 83 cm, the Vendôme occupies a considered footprint: generous enough for one person to recline fully, composed enough to serve as a sculptural seat for two in a salon, dressing room, or entrance hall. Its single configuration is offered with a range of fabric upholsteries, enabling coordination with broader interior schemes. For projects requiring a specific textile or COM specification, our team can guide the selection process.

Frequently asked questions

Can I specify my own fabric or COM for the Vendôme Daybed?
Hugues Chevalier supports fabric customization across their collections. Contact us with your project details and we can confirm available options, lead times, and COM requirements.

What makes saddle stitching more durable than conventional seaming?
Saddle stitching uses two needles passing through the same holes in opposite directions, so each stitch independently locks the thread in place. If a single stitch is compromised, the surrounding seam holds — a principle borrowed directly from saddlery and fine leatherwork.
