Cobea Chair
Cobea is an outdoor chair by Vincent Van Duysen, available in versions with and without armrests. Molteni&C identifies the backrest weave and solid-teak construction as its defining material features.
Materials
The structure is natural-finish solid teak with plastic ferrules. The back uses 100% polypropylene weaving, and the seat cushion contains shaped polyurethane under a water-repellent, fully recyclable polyester-fibre cover.
CSD2 Representative Size
Largest drawing values for CSD2, not labelled with axes: 58, 60.8 and 86 cm.
Story
Outdoor Material Study
Molteni&C presents Cobea as an expression of Vincent Van Duysen's outdoor work, combining teak slats, a woven back and a customizable seat cushion. The product page emphasizes the relationship between a solid structure and the softer polypropylene ribbon.
Landmark Collection
Molteni&C places Cobea in the Landmark Collection. No matching Landmark collection row exists in the local Library, and current owner rules prohibit creating a missing collection during this batch, so Cobea remains unlinked and the gap is recorded.
