Product Information
Description
It’s the design equivalent of a bucket hat. Cosy. Retro. And decidedly à la mode. Known in sartorial circles as Le Bambole, it joins the legion of Mario Bellini styles that are being redesigned with the Earth in mind.
In the new 2022 edition, recycled polyethylene lends Le Bambole it’s characteristic shape, while the inside is sheathed in a recycled PET undercover that means that every element can be recycled at the end of its lifetime. Proof, if ever it was needed, that great style should feel as good as it looks.
Snug and squishy, this listing can comfortably seat three people, and it is a little deeper than previous editions, so as to live up to the ways we now live and lounge.
Please note that the optional scatter cushions are not included in the product. To order these, we kindly ask that you contact the showroom.

Designer Profile
Mario Bellini
Mario Bellini is the epitome of Italian cool. Not content with reinventing his personal style every couple of years he also also coined a wide range of iconic designs from the flat-packable Chiara floor lamp to the cocooning curves of the Camaleonda. Never one to rest on his laurels, we’re hard-pressed to think of anyone who has left such an indelible mark on contemporary design. One of the many reasons we’re delighted to showcase his styles online or in-store at Chaplins.
