Gharieni has launched a series of spa and wellness furniture inspired by the current trend for retro furniture.

Called the Vintage Collection, the range is a throwback to the industrial and functional furnishings of the 40's and 50's. It was inspired by patchwork, a technique used in textile making that involves the cutting and stitching together of smaller pieces of fabric to create a larger piece. Gharieni designers reimagined this technique by piecing together different types of wood and other panels to create unique pieces with contrasting colours and textures.

The collection, which debuted at the Premiere Beauty Show in Dusseldorf in March, is available in a host of finishes, offering almost limitless customisation options to suit any design aesthetic. It consists of three pieces: the MLR-Select Vintage treatment bed, matching sideboard and trolley.

Described as a 'design highlight', the MLR-Select Vintage combines functionality with a high-end appearance. The bed, which is available in three widths - small, medium and large (as of June 2019) - features two strong lifting columns, lowerable and swivelling armrests, adjustable head, back, leg and foot areas, storage space and the Trendelenburg function.

Additional features include: the Smart Thermo programmable heating system, fold down footrest, manual switch with memory for up to eight lying positions, as well as a foot switch for controlling basic and memory functions.
