Inspiration for the Suzie Wong bed comes from romantic comedy films in the fifties and, even further back, sumptuous alcoves from the 1700s. Roberto Lazzeroni gives us a light, feminine, almost twee version. The reference model is the classic boat bed, streamlined in a very modern makeover. It stands clear of the floor, lightly balanced on stiletto-heel tapered feet, covered in leather with brass caps. Even more sophisticated is the version with the headboard wrapped in quilted leather, embroidered with refined geometric stitching, a subtle reminder of the details typical of tailored and leather goods. The headboard frame is in solid beech wood e birch plywood, padded with polyurethane foam. The two shaped sides are in moulded polyurethane foam. Side panels in tulipier wood, with light polyurethane foam padding. Footboard in poplar multilayer the two corners in moulded polyurethane foam. Suzie Wong is upholstered in Pelle Frau® leather.
The Suzie Wong Extra bed sees the addition of new elements to be mixed and matched to suit personal taste and discovers a whole series of expressive solutions.
Elegant visual dynamics grace the leather-clad headboard, decorated with two large, simple horizontal bar-shaped buttons, as an alternative to the headboards already in the collection. The more luxurious version is wrapped in leather quilting embroidered with refined geometric stitching, while another version has a smooth central part and simple border piping.
Alongside the tapered feet, covered in leather, there is also a variant in moka- or wenge-stained solid ash. The footboard also comes in two versions, high or low to match the height of the bed frame boards and form a continual surface.
Suzie Wong is upholstered in Pelle Frau® leather from the Color System or Nest. The headboard frame is in solid beech wood e birch plywood, padded with polyurethane foam. The two shaped sides are in moulded polyurethane foam. The side panels are in tulipier wood, with light polyurethane foam padding, while the footboard is in poplar multilayer the two corners in moulded polyurethane foam. The back of the headboard can be entirely covered in leather or Poltrona Frau jacquard cloth.
