Most designer armchairs are bought for the head of the table and then live pulled out from it, because the arms hit the edge. Pedrali writes the answer directly on the Nemea spec sheet: the armrests rest on the table top. They stop at 680 mm, well below the 765 mm of the backrest, which is why the three armchair codes tuck in like a side chair — under a meeting table too — and leave a walkway behind them.
You get the choice of seat you would get on the side chairs: plywood on the 2825, a padded panel on the 2826, hand-woven cellulose rope on the 2827. The 2826 goes further and shapes its ash plywood backrest to rest against the table as well. Footprint stays 520 by 500 mm across the range, weights run from 5 to 6 kg, and the aluminium support is the same casting throughout. La Mercanti supplies the collection to US projects with samples reviewed before the order is confirmed.
