Michel Ducaroy
Aralia Lounge Chair
An exceptionally preserved Aralia lounge chair by Michel Ducaroy for Ligne Roset, retaining its original 1981 brown Liberty of London floral upholstery and period foam construction.
Designed by Michel Ducaroy for Ligne Roset, the Aralia belongs to the remarkable generation of low, sculptural seating that defined the French manufacturer's radical approach to comfort during the 1970s and early 1980s. Its generous proportions, deeply channelled upholstery and enveloping silhouette create an unmistakably relaxed form, closely connected to Ducaroy's exploration of frameless, foam-based furniture.

- The lounge chair remains in exceptionally well-preserved original vintage condition. The original Liberty of London upholstery shows only light wear to the seating area and gentle age-related fading, while retaining its rich brown colour palette and floral character throughout. The original foam remains remarkably supple, resilient and supportive, with excellent seating comfort and a beautifully preserved overall form. No reupholstery or replacement of the original foam has been carried out. Please refer to the detailed photographs for an accurate representation of the condition.
