Description

The set consists of four beige leather modular sofa elements, designed by Mario Bellini for the renowned manufacturer C&B Italia, which is now known as B&B Italia. The elegant pieces of furniture are characterised by their timeless aesthetics and high-quality workmanship. The design, which Mario Bellini created in 1966, was very well received and was even nominated for the coveted "Compasso d'Oro" in 1970.

The sofa elements are presented in a harmonious beige colour that can be integrated into a variety of furnishing styles. The seating modules are arranged in a modular fashion, which allows for flexible design and adaptation to different room sizes. The white fibreglass shell gives the set a modern touch and underlines Mario Bellini's innovative design philosophy.

The fact that this furniture ensemble was nominated for the "Compasso d'Oro" emphasises the outstanding quality and artistic value of this design. The timeless set by Mario Bellini for C&B Italia and B&B Italia thus remains not only an outstanding example of furniture art, but also a symbol of timeless elegance and innovation in the furniture industry.

The armchairs are no longer in their original condition and were reupholstered with genuine leather some time ago. Slight signs of use and subtle fading due to sunlight are present, but give the armchairs a charming vintage character.
