Black Armchairs

The black armchairs brought together by The Cool Republic form a selection of 110 models designed for interiors that embrace character. Black structures a room, absorbs competing lines and highlights the architecture of the furniture: back proportions, the curve of the armrests, the section of the legs. This is precisely why it remains the reference shade in high-end design furniture.

This showcase covers every use: the living room armchair placed opposite a light sofa to create a bold contrast, the reading armchair positioned near a natural light source, and the occasional armchair that can be moved as needed. Silhouettes range from the black design armchair with clean, geometric lines to the organic forms inherited from Scandinavian modernism, of which the Egg Chair by Arne Jacobsen and the Womb Chair by Eero Saarinen remain the essential references.

Materials shape the choice as much as form does. The black velvet armchair brings a dense texture and a warm feel suited to living spaces. Full-grain leather favours durability and noble ageing. The moulded shell, lacquered rattan or boucle fabric open up other registers, from the original black armchair to the timeless classic. For a black and white design armchair, several models combine a black seat with a natural or white frame.
