An authentic reproduction of the armchair produced by the Carré factory on Avenue de la Grande Armée in Paris. These armchairs were a familiar sight in the gardens of the French Belle Époque.
The seat is made of flexible metal blades, which makes it very comfortable even without a cushion. A refined choice for terraces, hotel gardens and anyone who loves historic French design.
The Carré name is associated with French garden chairs whose seats are made of springy steel blades. Vintage Carré chairs are now sought after by collectors of French garden furniture.

Handmade to order
Every piece is forged, riveted and finished by hand in our family workshop, where three generations of blacksmiths have worked since the 1950s. Bespoke sizes, larger quantities for hotels, restaurants and event venues, and trade pricing are available. Contact us for a quote.

Galvanisation
Hot-dip galvanisation means dipping the finished piece in molten zinc, which forms a protective layer against rust. It is the most effective long-term protection for furniture that stays outdoors all year.
