Capilla Fireplace by Antoni Coderch – Original Polinax Edition, Circa 1960

About the Item

"Capilla" Fireplace by Antoni Coderch – Original Polinax Edition, Circa 1960 Designer: Antoni Coderch (in collaboration with Leopoldo Milá) Model: Capilla Fireplace Year of Design: 1952 Manufacturer: Polinax, Spain Era: Circa 1960 (Original Production) Material: Fully constructed in sheet metal Condition: Original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, showcasing a beautiful patina The "Capilla" fireplace, designed in 1952 by renowned architect Antoni Coderch in collaboration with Leopoldo Milá, is an iconic piece of mid-century Spanish design. Originally created to address the needs of compact living spaces, this fireplace's elegant simplicity adapts seamlessly to both small and large interiors. Its design is inspired by traditional English built-in fireplaces, reimagined through Coderch's modernist lens. The result is a sculptural, three-dimensional, yet "transparent" form that commands attention while harmonizing with its surroundings. This balance of form and function makes the "Capilla" a timeless masterpiece, reflective of Coderch’s architectural philosophy. This particular example belongs to the original Polinax production, fabricated entirely in metal sheet and celebrated for its craftsmanship and innovative approach. The model was awarded the prestigious Delta de Oro by ADI/FAD in 1964, cementing its place in design history. A rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of 20th-century design heritage, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts of architectural and mid-century modern furniture.
