About the Item
Exceptional set of four Lira e Liuto (Cassina CAB-K5) chairs designed by Mario Bellini for Cassina, Italy, circa 1980s.
These iconic chairs exemplify Bellini’s sculptural approach to seating, combining expressive form with refined craftsmanship.
The chairs are fully upholstered in rich cognac brown saddle leather, beautifully aged with a warm patina that highlights the natural character of the material. The distinctive curved backrest with integrated cut-out and elegant stitched detailing reflects the instrument-inspired design for which the model is named. The legs are seamlessly integrated into the leather shell, creating a unified and architectural silhouette.
A rare and highly collectible design, Lira e Liuto chairs are emblematic of Italian postmodern design and remain sought after by collectors.
