This exceptional ‘Bambole’ lounge chair, designed by the legendary Mario Bellini and produced by B&B Italia in 1973, stands as an icon of 1970s design. Instantly recognizable for its plush, inviting silhouette, the Bambole collection quickly became a defining success for the brand, embodying the era’s embrace of soft, sculptural forms and casual sophistication. The chair’s relaxed shape and generous proportions offered a new approach to comfort, earning it widespread acclaim both for its aesthetics and its usability. This particular piece is upholstered in its original chocolate brown buffalo leather, at the time, the most premium and desirable option available. The leather has aged gracefully, acquiring a rich patina that enhances its vintage charm and individuality. Despite its age, the chair remains structurally sound and remarkably comfortable, with resilient foam that continues to provide excellent support and coziness. from every angle, the design reveals its bold yet cozy personality, making it not just a visual statement but also a practical choice for everyday living. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
