Calia Italia GIUGGIOLA Swivel fabric easy chair

Resulting from a scientific partnership with La Sapienza University of Rome (as part of the Industrial Design degree course), Giuggiola is a Calia Italia armchair that exalts the beauty and strength of women.‎ The back of the armchair represents an important symbol in that it is made up of a special weave that evokes the ancient art of creating bun-shaped hairstyles (known as ‘crocchia’) by  the women who lived in the Sassi di Matera.‎ Originally, a ‘crocchia’ was made with a three-pronged braid, whereas the Giuggiola braid is made up of as many as 12 strands, reflecting the craftsmanship acquired in over 60 years of history.‎ Characterised by its elegant tail base reminiscent of the train of an evening dress, this armchair is available in fixed, swivel and storage seat versions.‎  The Superior Collection sees Calia Italia inaugurate a new concept of style.‎ The models of the collection are true design objects that are born from the union of worlds, stimuli and inspirations of a different nature.‎ They are the products of collaborations with external designers, the realisation of social projects, participation in cultural events and synergy with universities.‎ Each sofa has its own style and each style has its own story.‎ The result is a unique comfort experience.‎ Further info from manufacturer on GIUGGIOLA Calia Italia
