Product Information
Description
The Barcelona Relax chair is a perfect design and strong visual statement. It has become the ultimate and timeless image of elegance and comfort. A careful study of the potential for even softer upholstery and a new collection of “full grain” leathers, softer to the touch and capable of ageing gracefully have contributed to give a greater residential feel to what remains the undisputed ‘monument’ of the international history of design.

Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.

Brand Profile
Giorgetti
In the world of contemporary design, there are those that follow the rules, and then there is Giorgetti — for whom the usual laws of physics seem not to apply. The magic is made possible thanks to a legion of artisans, each of whom works to trace new languages out of wood. Out of this eloquent alchemy come hugging armchairs, wraparound desks and tables so sinuous you’ll have to look twice. They refer to this practice as the art of shaping. We know it simply as the Giorgetti factor.
