Description
For the iconic Cab 412 chair, fit is everything. Originally designed in 1977 by Mario Bellini, it was the first free-standing chair to be entirely cloaked in leather. The result of years of study and many a dextrous craftsperson, it is is widely recognised as one of the most significant chair designs of the 20th century and is featured in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.Need a second opinion?Our design experts can assist with everything from swatches to sizing to pricing. -

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.
