Billiani INTRODUCES

MARIMBA

Category: Seating

marimba

For the unprecedented combination of wood and leather, Marimba is a novelty in the Billiani collection. Particularly the shaping of the seat, as well as the back legs, which stretch and tilt slightly to support the shaped leather backrest. A project by Emilio Nanni that has the character of something you might find in a leather goods store, combined with the charm of a hand-crafted object. A felt version is also available.

Billiani

Archetype-A

Archetype-A is a wooden chair designed by Mario Alessiani that celebrates the company’s origins and know-how. The design is as simple as possible. Nothing more than four legs, a seat and a back.

DOLL

The wooden Doll chair, Emilio Nanni’s first commissioned design for Billiani, expresses essentiality with grace and softness.

Billiani

SPY

Spy is an extensive and complete collection of chairs, lounge chairs, armchairs, tables and coffee tables. Its leitmotif is the design of the leg, which tapers and is slightly splayed.

Puccio

Billiani

Puccio

The Puccio collection started life based on milking stools, perfectly designless and designer-free seating which, thanks to its functionality, has survived unchanged through the centuries.

FRISÉE TABLES

Cristina Celestino’s soft and enveloping touch exalts Billiani’s materials and know-how with pure colours, corners that turn into delicate curves, and bulbous leg-ends. Variously sized

Corolla

Billiani

COROLLA

Cristina Celestino designs a lounge collection with soft and harmonious shapes. The rounded volumes are lightened by the worked wood base, Billiani’s stylistic code.

veretta

Billiani

VERETTA

 Soft lines and simple geometry describe the contours of the Veretta chair, characterized by the feature ring in curved solid beechwood that surrounds the seat and houses the backrest.
