About the Item

A remarkable pair of “401 Break” armchairs attributed to Mario Bellini for Cassina — icons of Italian modernist design from the 1970s. These sculptural chairs showcase the architect’s signature balance of structure, comfort, and conceptual rigor. The angular arm design and low, grounding proportions reflect Bellini’s architectural mindset, while the fluid seat contours offer comfort and poise. Each chair seems to float on its base, an effect that captures Bellini’s fascination with both form and suspension. Executed with the precision and quality associated with Cassina, the design embodies timeless craftsmanship. The bold geometry is softened by thoughtful ergonomic shaping, creating a chair that is as comfortable as it is visually engaging. Reupholstery-ready, this pair provides a canvas for customization — ideal for designers or homeowners who wish to match the chairs’ distinguished form with their own color or texture preferences. Whether placed in a modernist living space, a design-forward office, or a high-end gallery interior, these chairs command attention without overpowering their surroundings. Elegant, architectural, and undeniably sophisticated, this pair of Mario Bellini–attributed armchairs stands as a celebration of Italian innovation in furniture design.
