A throne for the everyday.This 19th-century sgabello chair from Rome is a masterclass in sculptural woodworking, its elaborate cutouts and hand-carved silhouette echoing the grandeur of Italian Renaissance design. Once gracing the halls of a Roman church, it’s crafted from dark walnut and retains its original patina, rich with centuries of devotion and use. Found in Montpellier through an Italian dealer, it’s one of three available- each a true artifact of ecclesiastical craftsmanship now ready to reign over your hallway, reading nook, or corner of quiet contemplation.
