The Lobster Chair Makes Its Statement

The Lobster Chair by Carlo Colombo turns luxury furniture design into sculpture. Created for Elie Saab Maison, it captures the precision and drama of couture in a single form.

Its silhouette unfolds like a shell. Curved panels wrap around the body, each one framed in polished nickel that catches the light. The gradient upholstery shifts from espresso to amber, blending warmth with control. The result feels both architectural and alive.

Every detail serves comfort. Each panel supports the body’s shape, creating a cradle that’s as functional as it is striking. Designers can customize the upholstery, ensuring every piece feels distinct.

Like the Mah Jong modular classic, the Lobster Chair celebrates craft through composition. It shows how structure and softness can coexist—and how luxury furniture design can speak through form, not embellishment. Whether placed in a boutique hotel or a private lounge, it commands attention with ease.
