Orange Slice®

Two identical elements, reminiscent of slices of an orange - one forming the seat and the other the back and armrests - are perched atop an elegant steel frame.
A true acclaimed Artifort classic, the Orange Slice® by Pierre Paulin remains highly popular sixty-five years after its creation. The armchair makes every room more open, spacious and cheerful.

Reupholstery at Artifort 

Thanks to its innovative and original designs, Artifort furniture is often passed down through generations. By having the original model reupholstered by Artifort – the original manufacturer – the essence of the design is preserved, with full respect for its original proportions, high-quality materials, and refined detailing. Reupholstery gives a beloved, timeless piece a new lease of life, while contributing to a circular future where exceptional quality and aesthetics are passed on to the next generation.

Mare

The design of Mare with fixed cushion is defined by clean lines and understated detailing. Characteristic of this modular sofa programme is the subtle slit at the centre of the seat and the slender base, which runs from back to front - lending the sofa its distinctive elegance. Mare is available with either fixed seat and back cushions or with loose back cushions.
