The Cité armchair is one of the first masterpieces of the French engineer and designer Jean Prouvé. Originally designed to equip the rooms of the student residence of the Cité Universitaire de Nancy, Prouvé also obtained this comfortable and spacious armchair, with its characteristic powder-coated steel sleds and leather straps armrests, in the living room of his own house.

The Cité armchair, which was created for a competition to equip the Cité Universitaire de Nancy student residence, is one of Prouvé’s first masterpieces. This dynamic armchair, with its characteristic powder-coated sheet steel runners and wide leather straps as armrests, was used by Prouvé himself in his living room. Its generous dimensions and cozy upholstery help provide exceptional comfort.
