Description
Overview
Anomaly is an ottoman designed by Front in 2013. Injected flame-retardant polyurethane foam is formed over a wood frame.
Upholstery
Moroso offers this model only in vegetable-tanned leather. The leather has no protective treatment or dye and will gradually darken through exposure to light.
Story
Anomaly in 2013
Moroso credits Front with the 2013 design. The official description pairs a foam-over-wood construction with a single untreated leather specification.
Natural surface change
Moroso calls the covering a nude leather with a very thin structure. It is soft to the touch, delicate, readily stained and expected to darken over time.
