Mario Bellini.

Set of nine (9) original vintage cab 412 (6 pieces) and 413 (3 pieces) by Mario Bellini for Cassina in very good vintage condition.
|
A set of 9 Italian design icons in red burgundy (oxblood) saddle leather. Consisting of 3x captain chairs cab 413 and 6x cab 412.
|
When first produced in 1977, the CAB was the first chair to feature a free-standing leather structure, inspired by how human skin fits over our skeleton.
|
The leather upholstery is constructed from sixteen pieces of saddle leather, which are individually die-cut and sewn together.
|
The leather is then zippered over the tubular steel frame and the polyurethane foam padded seat.
|
The chair is part of the permanent collection at the New York MoMA. It is perfect for the dining room, office, or as a side chair.
|
Overall it's a design with elegance and understatement, very comfortable to sit in, while still lightweight.
|
These chairs will last a lifetime. In very good vintage condition with hardly any wear. Some more some less.
|
Each chair is labelled at the bottom, Cassina.
