Quality, ethics and passion: Saba was born in 1988 and since then has dedicated its design research to the culture of relaxation. Creation, choice of materials, manufacturing and construction processes follow an ideal path guided by the desire to experiment without inclination towards excess and with constant attention to the principles of quality and ergonomics. For Saba, a design product must not only have excellent characteristics from a technical point of view, but must also respond to the real needs of the consumer and at the same time raise aesthetic emotions to excite the public.

Technological innovation: for Saba, quality is a matter of accuracy, measurement and detail, which is why we use extremely high precision machinery that guarantees the optimization and control of all production phases. The experience of the artisan workforce remains fundamental.

Selection of quality materials: the choice of excellent materials is the basis of every new project. What characterizes Saba is the unmistakable style of combining every shape with the poetry of color and the material of the fabric. Each collection has its own design nature, which allows the shapes of the model to be adapted to ergonomic needs.
