NEW: discover our latest baby, the little SABA chair!

A new arrival has just expanded our range of products for babies and toddlers! After the iconic LEVO bouncer, the TIBU high chair, the KUMI bassinet (and all the others…), discover the latest member of the Charlie Crane family: the SABA, queen of little chairs, whose irresistible design will win over young and old alike. To find out more about this beautiful new addition, we asked Gaspard Tiné-Berès, head of the design department at Charlie Crane, who conceived the SABA, a few questions.

1 / Hello Gaspard! Can you tell us where the name SABA comes from?

At Charlie Crane, we have a system for finding names for our products: 4 letters, consonant/vowel. SABA was born when I saw my daughter sitting on the very first prototype of the chair: she looked like a little queen on her throne.

2 / Was there a responsible approach in the creation of this little chair?

Yes, like everything we do at Charlie Crane. First, it comes in flat-pack: it is shipped in the flattest possible packaging, which greatly reduces the environmental impact of transportation. Then, all materials are natural and made in Europe: the SABA is made from raw beech wood from Slovenia, 100% Italian wool felt, with cruelty-free certified wool and chemical-free dye.

3 / Can you tell us about the choice of materials?

This chair has something rustic about it, a raw spirit, and the materials are consistent with that identity: light untreated beech wood, real wool in thick felt that guarantees both aesthetic and mechanical quality. It's simple but beautiful! In all objectivity ;)

4 / How do you see the Charlie Crane "kids" range in a few years?

We try to create iconic products, so it's not that simple and it takes time (laughs). But rather than launching many products each year (which might already exist or look like something already seen on the market), we try to innovate by offering families furniture that truly moves us. Furniture they will genuinely love, keep for a long time, and pass on… Beyond the development side, there are so many exciting topics at Charlie Crane: first, we're working hard to relocate production as much as possible. Then, the team has grown a lot in a short time, and it's real work to make sure everyone feels in the right place and is happy to come to work in the morning. So far, we've only hired gems, so we keep growing… and dreaming big!

Ideal for children from 18 months to 6 years old, the SABA chair will quickly become the favorite in the whole house!
