Leopold by Poliform

Inspired by the chair of the same name, the Leopold armchair is distinguished by a generous and enveloping cushion, enclosed in a minimal wooden structure that emphasises its volume and visual lightness. A perfect balance between sophisticated design, functionality and timeless elegance.
