Mario Bellini "Cab 413" Chairs For Cassina, Tobacco Leather, 1977, Set Of 3

Mario Bellini "CAB 413" dining chairs for Cassina in dark brown tobacco leather, Italy, 1977, set of three.The "CAB" is the world's first free-standing cowhide design chair, informed by the relationship between the skeleton and the skin; an authentic example of production excellence that requires multiple stages of artisan craftsmanship to create a trendy tailored-to-fit object. The "CAB" are high-quality chairs with hand-stitched natural leather upholstery wrapped over an internal steel frame. The only additional reinforcement is provided by a rubber membrane plate that supports the seat. Bellini's innovation lay in using zips to fasten the leather cover to its frame; a zip runs up the inside of each leg, sealing the cover. Our atelier carefully restored and refinished the chairs. We offer custom restoration and special reupholstering on request. Our atelier enhances Italy's excellence by providing dedicated and tailor-made customization services.
