ROCHE MID CENTURY MODERN ARMCHAIR
Roche is a well recognized modernist icon originally designed in 1928 for the Maison La Roche house in Paris. Roche, like the original design was revolutionary in its making as it was not built over a wooden frame. The entire armchair is built around the cushions with a metal exoskeleton and base network "spring webbing".  Remarkably comfortable, Roche was appropriately dubbed “cushion baskets.”
MAKING THE ICON
Kardiel offers the highest quality reproduction of this series on the market. We specialize and understand fully the intricacies of the original design. From the supple Genuine Top Grain Premium Soft Aniline Leather to the plump generously filled and wrapped cushions, our full list of features means you don’t have to settle for an inferior reproduction. You wont find a solid wood frame as the original was not built with one. The cushions are meant to take on a somewhat plump stuffed appearance verses a hard square cubed look. The base below the cushions features a webspring platform for added comfort. The details in scale are important with all reproduction pieces and Roche is no exception. Compare this reproduction anywhere for its highest standard of exacting detail. You may find the accuracy of this reproduction second to none.
Attention to detail matters when faithfully reproducing an original icon. Like the original, as the tubular steel wraps from the arm to the back it is bent with heat to form the round curve.
This is in contrast to reproductions that weld two pieces of steel at more of a 45 degree angle to form the curve.  GENUINE TOP GRAIN ANILINE LEATHER
A small percent of the world’s leather supply is of high enough quality for 100% Top Grain Aniline upholstered furniture. Aniline Dyeing is the process of soaking the hides in transparent aniline dyes which allows color to absorb into the natural hide. Top Grain Aniline leather is then topical stain protected to minimize liquid absorption during every day use but does not require imitation grain stamping methods which imprint a Faux grain over the majority of the leather surface. Without all the synthetic topical coatings, it breathes naturally making it comfortable for seating. It is soft, supple, durable and pliable, maintaining the characteristics of pure leather.
