Atlante
The Atlante daybed
expresses a svelte aesthetic through high-quality materials which ensure it
long life even in the most disparate weather conditions.
Its many craftsmanship
details underscore this daybed’s impressive talent for personalization. The
aluminum base has an epoxy powder-coat finish in a series of sophisticated
shades, while the water-repellent elastic webbing comes in sand, grey and
anthracite colors to create elegant contrasts or subtle tone-on-tone pairings.
The comfortably soft
mattress is filled with blown polyester fiber and finished with elegant
grosgrain piping.
A simple mechanism allows
the angle of inclination of the solid iroko backrest to be easily adjusted and
also comes in a version with aluminum posterior wheels to smoothly shift its
location.
It is strongly advised
that the respective covers be used to keep the Atlante Daybed in top condition
and prolong their original beauty as much as possible.
