Papilio

The Papilio chair by B&B Italia, designed by Naoto Fukasawa, is named after the butterfly for its wing-like form that wraps gracefully around the sitter. The distinctive shell creates an intimate, cocoon-like seating experience with a strong visual identity.

Available in various upholstery options, Papilio combines organic sculptural beauty with surprising comfort. Its versatile design makes it equally at home as a dining chair, desk chair, or standalone accent piece.
