Bamboletto Bed designed by Mario Bellini for B&B Italia with headboard crafted from tubular and profiled steel with cold-molded flexible polyurethane foam, headrest cushions padded with polyester fiber, and a bed frame composed of shaped plywood panels and polyurethane, upholstered in either fabric or leather. Slatted base support made of galvanized steel with a central foot in aluminum.
Part of the iconic Le Bambole collection conceived by Mario Bellini in 1972, the Bamboletto bed stands as a symbol of Italian design excellence, recognized with the prestigious Compasso d’Oro award in 1979. This contemporary re-edition preserves the essence of the original—defined by its soft, enveloping lines—while reimagining it for enhanced comfort, sustainability, and elegance.
Faithfully restoring the original’s voluptuous, feminine contours, the 2022 Bamboletto revisits Bellini’s aesthetic roots while integrating cutting-edge technology. Where the internal structure was once made of metal and polyurethane, it now features a lightweight yet robust second-life recycled polyethylene frame. This is complemented by cold-foam polyurethane and innovative thermoplastic elastomers that shape the bed’s form to provide breathable, soft, and elastic support. Internal sleeves are made from recycled PET, and every component is fully removable and recyclable.
Every element of Bamboletto is designed to elevate rest: from the adjustable padded headboard to the wide range of leather and fabric upholstery options that allow for elegant, high-quality customization.
This updated version marks the 50th anniversary of the Le Bambole collection, which also includes the Bambola armchair, Bibambola sofa, and Granbambola—a deeper seating variation.
