Grande Papilio Armchair

Designed by Naoto Fukasawa

Naoto Fukasawa's Grande Papilio armchair takes the same organic shape full of fluid curves found in the original Papilio chair and draws it out into a larger and more statuesque form.

While it shares several of the key attributes of the traditional wingchair – a large curved headrest and comfortable body-hugging shape – the Grande Papilio removes all other extraneous details. The result is a visually calming object that has a subtle presence in the room. Appearing like a single form carved, or perhaps poured, from a single material, the Grande Papilio armchair has a clever rear upholstery zip that removes all visible upholstery details creating a seamless sculptural object. As part of its remarkable comfort the design is equipped with a swivel mechanism that allows the user to rotate through 360 degrees. A matching ottoman provides further comfort and helps deliver a beautifully balanced tableau.


Our design consultants are ready to help. Our online store is just a small edit of our full collection, for more options and information on sizes, fabrics and finishes, please visit us in-store or enquire now.
