Product Information
Description
The Pumpkin creation has become Paulin's revolutionary style that has evolved from the end of the 1950s. The product name suggests is evocative of a giant pumpkin, welcoming the user with its protectively voluptuous - and voluptuously protective - shell. Resisting its appeal is an impossibility!

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.
Brand Profile
Ligne Roset
Ligne Roset is synonymous with modern luxury and invites consumers to revel in a contemporary, design-forward lifestyle. Good design is ingrained into their DNA quite literally. Their roots are anchored in the heart of the French countryside, at the foot of the Bugey mountains. Since 1860 they have been experts in the handling and manipulation of wood. Blurring the lines between life and art, the real and the imagined, continuing to defy expectations for design in the modern era.
