From the creative genius of Denis Santachiara, an eclectic Italian designer, and Enrico Baleri, the historical founder of the Baleri Italia company, in 1997 Tatino was born, a flexible seating or footrest in ecological flexible polyurethane, CFC free, with an internal anatomical rigid structure. There are two lateral slits to keep the elastic fabric in place. The cover is removable and comes in several colors. Tatino, together with Tato, Tatino, Tatone, Tato Bonbon, and Lunella, is part of the Tato collection created by Denis Santachiara and Enrico Baleri. Design irony and plastic shapes have made these poufs true icons of style, a symbol of Made in Italy quality all over the world.
The Tatino ottoman is available in different colors and can be used individually or combined with others. Thanks to the wide range of bright and bright colors that Baleri Italia offers, these poufs can give life to any type of environment.
