2021 Bentley Home Collection

TGR Staff

Bentley has released its latest collection of home furnishings for 2021, featuring cutting-edge new materials and unique finishes. The new pieces include the Aldford Table, Ramsey Sofa and Loveseat, and the Styal Desk and feature an innovative Degradé lacquering technique and fabric made from marble powder. 

The collection features distinctive lines and signature curves by furniture designer Carlo Colombo who worked with Bentley Home to create timeless shapes using sustainable materials including the new MARM \ MORE® marble powder fabric.

Degradé lacquering is key to the overall aesthetic of the 2021 Bentley Home Collection and brings a sense of quintessential luxury that is both customizable and instantly recognizable. Degradé involves an incredibly intricate and complex process to achieve the high standards required by Bentley Home’s customers. Before the Degradé essence can be created, a coat of varnish is hand-applied to protect the wood. A master craftsman must then use an airbrush to apply the color by hand, with just the right dose of lacquer, gradually drawing away from the wood to accentuate the color gradient and faithfully replicate every detail of the natural shading. After this long process, a round of polishing is required to give the product body, depth, and solidity. Four coats of varnish are then applied before a final round of polishing.

MARM \ MORE® is an innovative, ethical new fabric making its debut in the furniture world, developed and patented for Bentley Home. Developing the new fabric was a complex and lengthy process. Production of the fabric requires the powder from high-quality marble to be mixed with a special composite to obtain a liquid microfilm. The microfilm recipe is then coupled with the selected cotton base textile to produce this unique fabric finish. This innovation in textile development uses renewable resources only and results in significant waste reduction and is offered in light grey or natural green.

Styal

The new Styal Desk is the masterpiece of the new 2021 Bentley Home collection. During these times where the office has forcibly entered our homes, Bentley Home elevates the concept of office space, giving shape to an iconic product, luxurious and refined throughout every detail.

Aldford

Design and art come together in the clean, sleek lines of the new Aldford Table, with both rectangular and circular versions available to choose from. Legs taper up from the floor and meet under the top in a single form, accentuating the sense of lightness and suspension. The design is enhanced by the three layers that make up the tabletop: the underside is lacquered in glossy black, and a metal profile runs around the perimeter.

Ramsey

The Ramsey range appears to defy gravity: its seat is suspended off the floor, and its tapered shell flows into armrests that reach upwards like outstretched wings. The lines are delicate, split only by a transparent panel between the seat and backrest. A gunmetal grey insert frames the profile, reaching down below the seat, emphasizing the apparent defiance of gravity.
