Cupboard Pranzo by Silvio Coppola for Bernini, 1964
About the Item
Pranzo is a cupboard clearly inspired by the Lombard cabinetmaking tradition in walnut wood, reflecting Silvio Coppola's essential approach to design; a design free from fleeting stylistic excesses and focused on the aesthetic durability of the object that can withstand the test of time and use. Pranzo is also characterized by the sophisticated use of details typical of Coppola's functional design, such as the drawer/tray that can be pulled out from the drop-down top, which can be easily brought to the table for convenient arrangement of cutlery and napkins. Another distinctive feature is the two side doors that open at 180°, allowing more practical and comfortable access to the compartment.
Pranzo, along with other custom pieces, was originally conceived as a furnishing element for the famous Milanese restaurant El Prosper, a place that has been a preferred meeting point for graphic designers, journalists, intellectuals, architects, and industry entrepreneurs for years, giving rise to contracts and even the production of some of the most beautiful pieces of Italian design. /Pranzo cupboard comes with an authenticity certificate issued by Bernini.

Designer:
Silvio Coppola was a renowned Italian architect, born on February 7, 1927, in Pescara, and passed away on February 22, 2011, in Milan. He was known for his contributions to furniture and object design, and he was involved in projects ranging from industrial design to architecture, as well as visual communication.
Coppola collaborated with various Italian design brands such as Cassina, Alessi, Kartell, and Bernini. For the latter, he not only conceived significant design products, highly sought after in prestigious auctions today, but also played a role in creating important corporate visual communication tools such as catalogs, invitations, and posters. He departed from the obvious choice of coated paper, preferring transparent PVC sheets hot-pressed with a layer of metal.
He also collaborated with major industries including Bayer, Montecatini, Monteschell, Zucchi, Cinzano, Parmalat, and Feltrinelli. Among the numerous awards he received, notable ones include the Golden Palm of Advertising in 1962 and the European Rizzoli Prize in 1966.
His work was influenced by modernism and contributed to shaping the style and aesthetics of that era. His significant contributions to the worlds of design and architecture are still highly appreciated and studied today. /
