Product Information
Description
Created in 2010 by legendary designer Patricia Urquiola for B&B Italia, Bend looks as if it was designed and moulded by an artist but its true origin is from a study on 3D models. Bend gained its name from the unique way it expresses the idea of movement obtained by alternating full and empty volumes, which is further expressed by its contrasting zig-zag stitching.
Bends huge personality can be used to create alternative and comforting seating for use within the home or in public spaces. This smart system was crafted from an internal frame in tubular steel which is covered by B&B Italias signature cold shaped polyurethane foam for unparalleled comfort. Choose from either a left or right-hand-side chaise and express yourself with our large range of fabrics and leathers.

Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
