The Allure O’ table, heartfelt tribute to glamour interpreted
in contemporary style, is presented in an outdoor version that
keeps the graceful force of its design, clearly visible in the
shape of the top and the balance between straight lines and
sinuous curves.
It is proposed with square and rectangular tops and in two
heights to accompany the Flair O’ Outdoor chairs but also
the sofas and chairs in the other families of the B&B Italia
Outdoor collection.
The base-frame is made of moulded grey cement, while the
tops are available in lightened grey concrete and a surprising
glossy glazed stoneware, a nostalgic material, used in the
past for kitchen cooking surfaces. Produced with an artisanal
technique, it is manually glazed by airbrush allowing for a
unique depth and variety of colour.
The Flair O’ Outdoor chair is characterized by a lightweight
aluminum frame completely covered with an interlacing of
polypropylene ribbons, following a meticulous hand-crafted
process. In particular, the backrest is woven on a special
circular loom (tombolo) in line with an ancient technique
typical of the area where the B&B Italia headquarter is
located. To fine-tune it, Monica Armani collaborated with
unPIZZO, a design studio, which specializes in the recovery
and development of traditional weaving techniques
revisited in a contemporary key and applied to the
furnishing sector.
