An “Amanta” modular sofa by Mario Bellini for B&B Italia, Italy, circa 1980
A rare four-piece “Amanta” modular seating system designed by Mario Bellini in 1966 and produced by C&B Italia (later B&B Italia), dating from the 1980s. Each module features a fibreglass shell raised on four round black rubber feet, giving the design its distinctive floating appearance. The seats are upholstered in the original beige fabric, a neutral and versatile tone that works effortlessly in both modern and period interiors. Each chair is fitted with three separate cushions, including a removable foam base cushion secured by a black toggle to prevent movement, alongside generously padded back and upper cushions with signature button detailing. This set includes the original matching side table, an exceptionally rare addition that allows for flexible configurations, from a corner arrangement to a face-to-face layout with the table used centrally as a coffee table. A highly collectible and sculptural example of Italian modernist design.
Condition: overall very good vintage condition. The fibreglass shells are in excellent order with no chips or cracks. The original corduroy upholstery shows minor wear consistent with age but remains exceptionally well preserved. Please refer to photographs.
Dimensions (each seat): 80cm wide, 80cm deep, 70cm high; seat height: 38cm. Coffee / side table is 85cm wide, 85cm deep, 35cm high
