The design is notable for its innovative construction: a steel frame completely covered by a thick saddle leather that is zipped over the structure, creating a sculptural yet comfortable seat.

this set features beautiful red saddle leather that has developed a rich natural patina over time, highlighting the quality of the material and the craftsmanship of the piece. The leather shows attractive signs of age and use consistent with vintage examples, giving the chairs strong character.

these chairs are early production examples. As confirmed by cassina, pieces from this early period were typically not yet marked, which is consistent with this set. The underside still retains the characteristic canvas base typical for early cab chairs.

the cab chair remains one of mario bellini’s most recognizable designs and has become a true modern design classic. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
