INTRODUCES
Cantle
Category: Sofas and armchairs
Cantle: a seat the embraces the body and determine its posture.
Designed by
Marco Lavit
Equestrian inspiration underlies the Cantle collection. The term ‘cantle’ refers to the rear part of the saddle, which is usually curved and provides the rider with a safe and comfortable seat. In the armchair designed by Lavit, the back thus assumes the form of the arc of a circle, which embraces the body and determines its posture.
Product description
Supported by a steel frame that traces a strikingly sophisticated silhouette, both the back and seat are anchored to V-shaped brackets. This same element not only characterises the collection, but also makes it possible to reduce material consumption by removing the padding at the rear of the back: a detail enhanced by the double-sided upholstery made of leather and fabric sewn together, a savoir-faire element that evokes sartorial refinement.
