Pure Italian comfort food. We don't have enough room yet for this chair, but when we do, watch out... The Raffles Armchair by Vico Magistretti is a hard to find, but beautiful Italian adaption of the the classic English Roll-Arm Chair. Tone down the froofy Anglo and add the contemporary Italian and you get this baby. We consider this a timeless classic.
Made by DePadova, the Raffles is also an ottoman and a great two or three seater sofa as well. Made internally of wood and filled with polyurethan foam, the seat cushions are goose down. Front feet have swivel casters and the cover is completely removable for washing. Available in NYC through Architectural Design Products (212.941.9941) for @ $3500.

This looks exactly like a sofa that Lee Industries has been producing for at least 5 years. Same specs, good down and etc, same price, and made in USA - no need to waiste fuel to ship it from Italy. Buy LOCAL.... the beginning of green

I love Bridgewater sofas and the little lumbar pillows are a nice update.
