Fama Litto George Recliner Armchair – Compact Electric Recliner

The Fama Litto George Recliner Armchair combines contemporary styling, exceptional comfort and clever functionality in a beautifully compact design.

Part of Fama's new Litto armchair collection, the George features a wonderfully soft, high channelled back cushion offering excellent head and neck support, complemented by its distinctive level, supportive armrests.

Measuring just 75cm wide, the George is ideal for customers looking for a comfortable electric reclining armchair without the bulk of a traditional recliner.

Despite its compact proportions, the George offers impressive versatility, including an adjustable seat depth from 50cm to 55cm, four different base configurations and a smooth electric reclining mechanism requiring just 12cm clearance behind the chair.

The reclining backrest and footrest are controlled by a single electric motor, while an optional rechargeable battery pack allows the chair to operate without a trailing mains cable.

With supportive Nosag spring seating, a beautifully cushioned Fibresilk backrest and a choice of Fama fabrics and leathers, the Litto George delivers an excellent combination of comfort, practicality and contemporary design.

High Channelled Back Cushion – Excellent Head & Neck Support

One of the George's most appealing features is its beautifully channelled high back cushion, designed to provide generous support for your back, shoulders, neck and head.

The distinctive channelled upholstery creates a softly padded appearance, adding visual interest while enhancing the chair's inviting, comfortable character.

Behind the cushioning, the backrest features 80mm elastic webbing suspension, providing a supportive foundation beneath the soft Fibresilk-filled back cushion.

This combination creates a wonderfully comfortable and enveloping seating experience, making the George particularly appealing for customers who enjoy a supportive high-backed reclining chair.

Whether you're reading, watching television or simply relaxing, the George provides excellent upper-body comfort.

Level, Supportive Arms – Comfortable Contemporary Design

The Litto George is distinguished by its level, supportive armrests, creating a clean, balanced appearance that complements the chair's high channelled backrest.

Unlike the rounded arms of the Litto Emily, the George's level arm design provides a more structured look while offering a comfortable, supportive place to rest your arms.

The armrests are particularly useful when sitting upright, reading or watching television, allowing your arms to rest naturally alongside your body.

Their clean, contemporary styling also makes the George an excellent choice for modern living rooms, particularly when paired with the star or ring swivel base.

The Litto collection offers four different arm designs, with the George's distinctive level arms giving this model its own individual character.

Smooth Electric Reclining – One Motor for the Backrest & Footrest

The Litto George features a smooth single-motor electric reclining mechanism, controlling the movement of both the backrest and footrest.

At the touch of a button, you can adjust the reclining position to suit the way you prefer to relax, whether you're sitting upright, putting your feet up or stretching out.

When fully extended, the George measures approximately 175cm deep, providing generous space to unwind.

The straightforward electric reclining system makes the George easy to operate, offering excellent comfort without complicated controls.

Optional Rechargeable Battery Pack – No Trailing Mains Cable

For customers who prefer a cleaner, cable-free appearance, the Litto George is available with an optional rechargeable battery pack.

This allows the electric reclining mechanism to operate without the chair needing to remain connected to a mains socket.

It's particularly useful if you want to position your armchair away from a wall, beside a window or in the centre of a living room where a trailing power cable would be inconvenient.

The battery pack also offers greater flexibility when arranging your furniture, particularly when choosing one of the swivel base options.

Simply recharge the battery when required to continue enjoying the electric reclining function.

Just 12cm Wall Clearance – Ideal for Smaller Spaces

One of the George's most practical features is its space-efficient reclining mechanism.

The chair requires just 12cm clearance behind the backrest to recline, allowing it to be positioned relatively close to a wall.

Unlike traditional recliners that can require substantial space behind them, the George allows you to enjoy the benefits of a fully extending reclining chair while making better use of your living room.

With a compact overall width of just 75cm, the Litto George is particularly well suited to smaller living rooms, apartments and contemporary interiors.

Adjustable Seat Depth – Personalised Comfort from 50cm to 55cm

The Litto George features an adjustable seat depth ranging from 50cm to 55cm, allowing you to tailor the seating position to suit your height and personal preference.

A shallower seat depth provides a more upright, supportive sitting position, while a deeper setting allows you to relax further into the chair.

This is particularly useful when choosing a reclining armchair, as the correct seat depth can make a significant difference to comfort and back support.

The George's adjustable seating makes it a versatile option for customers who want a chair that can be personalised to their individual requirements.

Four Base Options – Choose Your Preferred Seat Height

The Fama Litto George is available with four different base configurations, allowing you to choose between fixed or swivel designs and select a seat height that best suits your comfort preferences.

Fixed Base with High Legs – 48cm Seat Height

The high fixed-leg option provides a 48cm seat height, making it particularly suitable for customers who prefer a slightly higher seating position.

A higher seat can also make sitting down and standing up more comfortable for some customers.

With this configuration, the George has an overall height of 105cm.

Fixed Base with Low Feet – 44cm Seat Height

For customers who prefer a lower, more relaxed seating position, the George is also available with low fixed feet.

This option provides a 44cm seat height, creating a slightly lower profile and a more contemporary, lounge-style appearance.

Ring Swivel Base – 46cm Seat Height

The ring swivel base combines a sleek, contemporary appearance with the flexibility of a rotating chair.

With a 46cm seat height, this option offers a comfortable middle ground between the high and low fixed-leg configurations.

The swivel function allows you to turn the chair towards different areas of your living room without needing to reposition it.

Star Swivel Base – 48cm Seat Height

The star swivel base provides a distinctive contemporary appearance, combining the flexibility of a swivel chair with a slightly higher 48cm seat height.

This is an excellent option for customers who prefer a modern statement chair with a more elevated seating position.

With four base options available, the Litto George can be tailored to suit both your preferred style and seating comfort.

Nosag Spring Seating – Supportive Medium-Touch Comfort

The George features Nosag metal spring seat suspension, providing a strong, supportive foundation beneath the seat cushion.

Nosag springs are designed to distribute weight across the seating area, helping provide consistent support during everyday use.

The seat offers a medium-touch softness, creating a comfortable balance between cushioning and support.

Rather than feeling excessively firm or overly soft, the George provides a supportive seating experience that's ideal for customers who enjoy a comfortable, well-balanced recliner.

Combined with the adjustable seat depth and electric reclining mechanism, this makes the George particularly versatile.

Fibresilk Back Cushion – Soft, Enveloping Comfort

The George's high channelled backrest combines supportive 80mm webbing suspension with a beautifully soft Fibresilk back cushion.

Fibresilk provides a soft, inviting feel, helping the cushion gently adapt to the shape of your back while offering comfortable support.

This creates a lovely contrast with the medium-touch seat cushion, offering a supportive seating foundation and a softer, more enveloping backrest.

The generous back height also provides excellent head and neck support, making the George a wonderful chair for longer periods of relaxation.

Removable Seat & Back Cushion Covers

The Litto George has been designed with practicality in mind.

Both the seat cushion cover and back cushion cover are removable, making it easier to care for the upholstery and maintain the chair's appearance over time.

This is particularly useful in busy households where occasional cleaning may be required.

The removable covers provide additional convenience without compromising the chair's beautifully tailored appearance.

Please note: Always follow the specific cleaning instructions for your chosen Fama fabric or leather. Removable covers are not necessarily machine washable.

Beautiful Fama Fabrics & Leathers

The Fama Litto George is available in an extensive selection of Fama upholstery fabrics and leathers.

Choose from beautiful contemporary textures, subtle neutral shades or more distinctive colours and patterns to create a chair that complements your home.

The George's level armrests and high channelled backrest work particularly well with both plain and textured fabrics, while leather upholstery creates a sophisticated, tailored appearance.

At Julia Jones, we're happy to help you explore the available upholstery options and choose a finish that suits your interior.
