Product Information
Description
Borea is a complete and eclectic collection of outdoor seats and tables designed by Piero Lissoni.The numerous pieces in the collection have in common tubular metal structures with a fluid and seamless design, without joints and interruptions, captivating and even emerging in the detail that extends to the base. The metal bending processes take advantage of techniques typically used in the aeronautical sector and transport them into the world of outdoor furniture bringing life to a collection with an unmistakable style.
With Borea, B&B Italia continues its commitment to developing projects that are increasingly focused on sustainability. In addition to using recycled and recyclable materials, all the furniture in the collection can be in fact completely disassembled. At the end of their life cycle, each single element can be separated and disposed of following the path most suitable for each material.
"Boreas is an airplane. It is an airplane that has landed, an airplane of 2020 but with a technological soul that perhaps comes from another century. It is an aluminum collection, very modern, stackable, a real outdoor product that you can leave in the rain and nothing happens, but above all it has this feature: it looks like an airplane! It gives you the idea of this timeless furniture that the tradition of the twentieth century has moved into the new century.” — Piero Lissoni

The tables reflect the design and shades of the seating structures, but use steel instead of aluminum to support distinctive tops in glazed lava stone. The lava stone comes from the slopes of Mount Etna (Sicily, Italy) and is available in large rectangular tiles in three bright colours which harmonize perfectly with the whole collection. The glazed surface is made with a special material obtained by recycling the glass of discarded TV and PC monitors, applied directly to the stone through an exclusive manufacturing process. All of the tables are realised with weather-resistant polyester powder painting. However, if the products are placed outdoor and not used for a period of time, we do suggest protecting them with their specifically designed waterproof cover cloth to prevent damage.Year of Design

Price Promise
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.
