Product Information
Description
Charles was designed and created in 1997 (Charles Large - 2003) by Italian architect and designer Antonio Citterio for B&B Italia and is universally known as the protagonist of modern lifestyle.The name? Charles is a great tribute to 50's and 60's design and gains its name from legendary designer Charles Eames who created some of the most popular designs during the mid twentieth century.
Charles is B&B Italia’s best-seller, and rightfully so. This contemporary sofa features a distinctive lightness, both from its body and chrome inverted “L”- shaped feet. The body is crafted from B&B Italia’s signature tubular steel internal frame which is covered in comforting flexible cold shaped polyurethane foam. This body is then blanketed with B&B Italia’s endless range of stylish and luxurious fabrics or leathers.

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.
