jacques armchair
Design Rodolfo Dordoni,
2018
The Jacques collection includes sofas, and ottomans available in several sizes, originated from a common design seed that transforms a vaguely retro style into a symbol of absolutely contemporary style.
A sophisticated aesthetic language that is expressed in soft shapes, compact proportions and details with striking visual impact, like the metal base with Light Bronze finish.
Elegant stitching emphasizes the curved silhouette of the Jacques armchairs and sofas, whose rounded shapes create a surprising contrast with the more formal, geometric outlines of the Lawrence sofa.
All of the seating elements share the enveloping lines that offer a pleasant sensation of welcoming warmth, thanks to the soft cushioning in the seats and backrests. Structural perfection and flawless tailoring underscore the high level of expertise achieved by the company over the years and are the consummate expression of its masterful craftsmanship.
The sophisticated elegance and compact proportions inherent in all the Jacques collection seating elements allow them to thrive harmoniously in any setting – from home decor to hospitality – and to be easily paired with the new seating systems.
Thanks to its soft seat cushion and backrest padding, the Jacques bergère, available both with fixed and swivel base, with swivel base is extremely comfortable and lends itself to the creation of spaces where relaxation is key. When combined with its ottoman and the Song coffee table that embraces the armchair with its organic shape, it becomes a functional table-top surface for a lamp or to display various kinds of objects.
The extensive Jacques family also includes ottomans in various shapes and sizes, all distinguished by an elegant stitched motif and a square decorative button.
The metal base with Light Bronze finish is a detail that lends refined decorative appeal to each piece in the Jacques collection.

Minotti was founded in the 50’s and born out of the vision intuition of Alberto Minotti. Its original artisan dimension soon changed and from the 60’s the company acquired an industrial character and size. In the 70’s, sons Renato and Roberto Minotti took it to another level by kick-starting the company’s expansion and garnering recognition for the brand in Italy and overseas. In charge of the company’s strategies, the Minotti brothers shared creative styling and aesthetic principles with architect Rodolfo Dordoni, who has been overseeing the collections since 1997. The key to the Minotti identity lies in its ability to express the Made in Italy concept to perfection, melding tradition and technology in an indissoluble way: artisan expertise puts the finishing touches to a product that is made using cutting-edge production methods, while intelligent hands lend sensitivity and emotion to industrial precision. Added to this high-level know-how is the careful selection of materials and technologies, which reveal a penchant for impeccable details, in an ideal striving for excellence that involves all sectors of the company. Recognizable features of the trademark Minotti style and products are a timeless design, unparalleled comfort, reliability and the ability to stand the test of time. These are the distinctive hallmarks that have made Minotti a leading manufacturer and seller of furniture and upholstered furniture which are distributed through an international network of trade people who are familiar with the recognition earned by the brand in 60 years of history. A recognition that has further strengthened the brand’s position in an ever more demanding, competitive and global market. This is why Minotti continues to be a mainstay for a discerning public who recognizes that a unique way of imagining and living the home is embedded in the brand’s unique lifestyle.
