Cliff Swing Chair

Design

The Cliff Swing Chair by Talenti brings a calm, nautical sensibility to the outdoors. Its profile is clean and confident, with a synthetic rope that wraps the backrest and armrests in a crisp, graphic line. The look is light, the presence is strong. Proportions are generous without feeling bulky: about 35.4 inches wide, 40.2 inches deep, and 24.0 inches high. Designed by Ludovica + Roberto Palomba and featured in the brand’s Icon catalogue, it sits comfortably between sculpture and everyday comfort.

The rope pattern creates rhythm and airflow, while the gently curved shell invites the body in. It swings with an easy, reassuring motion that quickly becomes part of the routine—morning coffee, late-afternoon pause, an evening read.

Materials & Build

An aluminum frame anchors the piece, giving it strength with minimal visual weight. The swing mechanism is directly connected to the base, so the movement feels secure, not floaty. There’s no fuss in the engineering—just a steady, quiet glide that does what it should. The rope is synthetic for resilience outdoors, holding its shape and line through the season.

Weight comes in around 61.7 pounds, substantial enough to feel planted, still manageable when the layout changes. Every detail aims at stability and ease, without overcomplicating the form.

Comfort

The seat cushion is plush and supportive, padded with quick-drying foam that bounces back after use and after a summer shower. Upholstery is a weather-resistant fabric that stays composed in the sun and dries fast. Cushion height is approximately 15.0 inches, which makes entry and exit natural, even when the chair is gently moving.

Angles are relaxed, not slouchy. The rope cradle adds a soft contour at the shoulders and arms, so longer sits feel effortless. It’s the kind of comfort that doesn’t call attention to itself—just feels right.

Placement & Lifestyle

Terrace, poolside, city balcony, or a shaded corner of the garden—the Cliff Swing Chair adapts. The footprint remains considerate of space, and the silhouette keeps views open. Finishes work easily with varied palettes, from neutral beige mélange to dark grey and beige-green. It stands well on its own or as a focal point within a lounge setting.

For those who like a defined retreat, the stand and base keep the swing independent from ceilings or beams. Move it when the light changes or when the party does. And when the day winds down, it’s an inviting spot to linger.

Longevity

Built for the outdoors, the materials handle weather and wear with poise. The fabric is weather-resistant, the foam dries quickly, and the synthetic rope keeps its structure. A protective cover is available and worth using between seasons or during long stretches of rain.

Care stays simple: occasional rinses, a soft brush for the rope, and cushions left to air after showers. With that, the Cliff Swing Chair from Talenti keeps its clean lines and easy swing, season after season.
