Vintage Design
A 1980s C&B Italia “Amanta” modular or sectional four piece sofa designed by Mario Bellini in 1966. The four chairs are made from an enamelled Fiberlite structure raised from the ground on four round hard black rubber feet. Each chair has three separate cushions. The removable foam block base cushion is secured in place with a small black toggle which slots into the base which stops it from sliding. The back and upper base cushion are extremely comfortable with three feature buttons on each. The fibreglass shells are in good order with no chips. The original red corduroy shows some minor wear but is in exceptional condition considering its age. By virtue of the label, it is possible to ascertain that this example predates 1973 when C&B Italia becomes B&B Italia following the acquisition of Cassina’s shares by Busnelli. A wonderful mid century set, rare to find in such good original condition. Easy to transport and well-designed for upper floor apartments or tight spots where a large sofa off equivalent size would struggle to fit. It also gives the versatility of a modular sofa whereby a whole host of different arrangement options are available. Perfect for a TV room, den, or living room setting.
