Features
- The FA-95-SU Belladonna sofa was designed by Franco Albini in 1951 and is handmade of Indonesian sustainable rattan. The sofa is made in the colour natural, which is original and suitable for every occasion. Skilled wicker workers make the fine bindings in the seat and back on a frame of rattan. Belladonna contributes a naturally beautiful element in the living room or in a summer cottage. With the fine open wicker and beautifully curved back, the sofa has a very elegant and aesthetic look. At the same time, the construction makes the impression that the seat is lifted on a pedestal, giving the furniture an almost majestic aura. Franco Albini (1905-1977) was both an architect and designer and had his heyday in the 1950s, producing a wide range of renowned furniture designs, including Rack Systems and Chairs Margherita and Gala. They are currently standing on MOMA in New York, as well as architectural works like La Rinascente in Rome, properties, and Metro stations in Milan. He managed to reconcile traditional Italian crafts with modernist and minimalist aesthetics. He has, among other things, produced its furniture design by Italian Cassina and Poltrona Frau. Franco Albini’s Ottoman from 1951 is an original, sculptural, and elegant piece of furniture that can contribute to different interior design needs with many possibilities. The timeless designs in rattan fit well with current developments and demands for sustainable furniture."
