Cantle
NEW!Designer
- Marco Lavit
Year
2024
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.
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.
Frame
The structure is made of tubular metal in different diameters and powder-coated (micro-embossed).
Nylon feet.
The seat is composed of a glass-filled nylon disc and polyurethane foam padding.
Cover
Fabric or leather, non-removable cover.
Rear backrest
The back is made of a curved Baydur rigid polyurethane element and polyurethane foam padding. The inner part is upholstered in fabric or leather. The outer part is upholstered in saddle-hide.

Fire resistance: ISO 1021:1-2, BS 5852 source 0-1, IMO FTP8 A652, California TB 117-2013ANILINA leather naturally shows differences in finish and color, visual irregularities, marks, shades and color unevenness, peculiarities of a natural material of the highest quality and synonymous of its value and uniqueness. Due to its extreme naturalness, it is also more delicate and sensitive than more treated leathers: the contact with liquids, with different materials and colors, as well as the direct exposure to the sunlight and heat sources could indelibly alter the color, while metal or sharp parts may affect the surface. For daily cleaning, simply dust with a soft, dry cloth. For a more thorough cleaning, it is expressly recommended to use specific products for leather, avoiding the use of water, soap and any aggressive detergents.
