This small armchair, which strongly references 1970s design, is engineered to be completely disassembled for ease of disposal and recycling of the organic and premium materials, starting with the metal core. The padding in the legs and seat is in polyurethane foam with a percentage of polyols derived from organic sources, which contributes to making this piece of furniture an example of sustainable, environmentally aware design, as well as a masterpiece of comfort. Leg and seat padding in polyurethane foam with a percentage of polyols deriving from biological sources. Internal lining laminated fibre and recycled pet fibre. External upholstery in a selection of fabrics from the cassina collections. The small armchair that dialogues with the sengu table is very evocative and strongly references 1970s design. Dudet is a small architecture defined by three individual padded elements: a seat cushion and two tubes that fluidly design its legs, armrests and backrest in a continuous line. The soft and comfortable appearance of the dudet armchair strikes immediately and, under its welcoming curves, it has a conscious soul thanks to the fact that its elements can be easily separated. An innovative system that, with a view to circularity, allows its metal core to be separated from the polyurethane foam padding made with a percentage of polyols deriving from biological sources. This facilitates both the disposal of the separate pieces and the recycling of its noble materials like its steel core. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
