Italian Mid Century Modern Travertine Fish Sculpture in the style of Enzo Mari

About the Item

A mid-century miniature sculpture set depicting a large Fish. This miniature set made in Italy in the 70s combines two Italian peculiarities, the great skill of Italian craftsmen in working marble, in this case travertine, and Design. In the case of this sculptural Fish, the ability to stylize and with a few lines create an animal silhouette recognizable to all. During the mid-20th century these objects were very popular in Italy, the most famous are those designed by Enzo Mari and produced by the Fratelli Mannelli factory, a historic brand for the production of travertine furniture. A project born perhaps following the design of a splendid educational game created for "Danese", a modular puzzle, a multiple interlocking structure, expertly created to obtain from a single rectangular wooden board and with a single continuous cut, 16 animal silhouettes all different from each other. This item is in good condition and is suitable for use as a bookend or as a business card holder, its dimensions are good, it is 13.5 cm high and 15 cm long. The thickness is 3 cm.

Midcentury Travertine Ashtray in the Style of Fratelli Mannelli, Italy, 1970s
By Fratelli Mannelli
Located in Roma, IT
Sculptural Ashtray attributable to the historic company Fratelli Mannelli, specialized in the processing of travertine. Known for its collaboration with the designer Enzo Mari, who designed a series of stylized travertine animals, this Manifcaturer has also produced many other furnishing elements such as ashtrays, coffee tables and lamps. The ashtray that we offer for design and material seems to be part of this vast production of this manufacturer. The ashtray has a classic quadrangular shape but the distinctive element that distinguishes it and makes it more similar to a sculpture than a simple ashtray is in the handmade carved elements. There is a small central basin that connects with those created to be able to place the cigarettes laterally, but above all the lines that intersect each other as in a sound sculpture by Pinuccio Sciola.
