At the heart of the design is the diabolo, inspired by the classic toy. Its concave shape allows it to seamlessly connect with the convex fireside chairs, forming a stylish and inviting three-seat settee. A mirror-polished stainless steel linking piece secures the modular elements, ensuring both stability and versatility. Saparella is a bold, timeless statement—designed for endless summer days.
