Two-seater Sofa 'Le Bambole' in Cognac Leather by Mario Bellini for B&B Italia
-
Description
The Bambole line is a famous mid-century design classic designed by the legendary Italian designer Mario Bellini. It was awarded with the Compasso d'Oro in 1979.
Design
This specific two-seater from the series is actually called the Bibambola. Its playful design language and the almost inviting way in which this sofa tempts you to sit in it, is wonderful.The model we offer here is an early version with a metal frame on the inside that is completely encapsulated in polyurethane. The cognac leather has a truly sublime patina and is very soft to the touch. In a very subtle way we see an abundance of shades within the spectrum of the color brown. Interesting to see is how the shadow flows from the folds to the light that falls on the curves and thus makes the leather shine. This Bibambola therefore compares differently to a newer variant. The playful and fresh character of a new version cannot compete with the beauty that has been created in this item by the passing of time. At the bottom is the large B&B Italia logo with a handwritten serial number.
Condition
This sofa has been recently restored and fully reupholstered with respect for the authentic look of the design and feel of the material. - More Information
