Story
A bench for a collection
The page says the Fidelio bench enriches an already lavish collection and is a seat of great formal purity that lets the beauty of its materials speak for itself: the warm intensity of saddle leather meets solid wood, and the folds and visible stitching of the surfaces offset the minimal lines of the base.
Balance
With the bench, the page says, Lazzeroni achieves a formal and noteworthy balance; the understated design, the precision of the lines and the consistency of each minimal detail give it a relaxing, calming appearance.
