AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid leather sofa in brandy color

Two-seat sofa model ‘Le Bambole’ designed by Mario Bellini in 1972 and awarded the Compasso d’Oro in 1979

Iconic historical symbol of timeless Italian design, one of the most significant expressions of Italian design in the 1970s.

The Le Bambole sofa is a timeless icon, with the apparent absence of a supporting structure, which gives the sofa a natural and harmonious look.
Its soft and elastic shape is able to offer unparalleled comfort, enveloping the user’s body.

The sofa in question is a rare early production from the 1980s

The interior padding is still perfect.

Stamped on the base in yuta

Bibliography: G. Gramigna, Repertorio del Design Italiano 1950-2000, Allemandi, Torino, 2003, p. 198

Domus 515 (October 1972)
Domus 516 (November 1972)
Casa Amica 7 (November 1972) p. 42

In case of shipment, the sofa will be packed and placed on a custom-made wooden crate for the sofa.

P.S. I do not ship to the United States due to logistics.
