The Molteni &C Palinfrasca chaise longue by Vincent Van Duysen is available in two sizes and offers the ultimate in garden comfort with its deep upholstered cushions and gently curving frame created to embrace and envelop you.
Part of the Palinfrasca Landmark collection of garden sofas, armchairs, love seats, daybeds and modular elements all of which have an iconic rounded shape which takes its inspiration from the designer and architect, Luca Meda.
Based on a piece that Meda created for Molteni in 1994, current designer Vincent Van Duysen has put together a unique collection of garden furniture which combines beautiful solid teak rich in refined cabinet-making details with a highly distinctive woven warp and weft motif.
The weave is available in either teak or olive green EVA polyurethane, a pliable yet non-deformable weather resistant material with an appearance reminiscent of leather. Deep, generous cushions give an air of abundance, softness and richness, whilst the seat cushion in moulded polyurethane with variable densities provides maximum support, for immersive comfort.
Removable cushion covers are in outdoor, draining and weather-resistant fabrics which can be selected in several categories including the Musco collection which was developed in collaboration with Limonta Spa and selected by Marta Ferri. Musco offers seven different monochrome or striped jacquard and bouclé yarns inspired by shades of nature which can be combined to match or contrast each other. For correct ergonomics Molteni suggest that you add 2 x seat back cushions and 1 x lumbar cushion to each chaise.
Garden furniture is an exciting addition to prestigious Italian modern furniture brand Molteni&C’s extensive collection and is only possible after years of research into suitable materials: a knowledge gained in the almost ninety years of the life of the company which was founded in 1934.
