Set of 70s Travertine Hedgehogs Sculptures attributable to Fratelli Mannelli

About the Item

Trio of decorative and collectible sculptures as well as the many travertine animals produced during the 70s by the historic Fratelli Mannelli company. A family made up of 3 Hedgehogs whose dimensions reduce in scale, of which the largest measures 10cm wide by 9cm high. The figures of the animal kingdom have been stylized to adapt to the material of choice of this company while remaining intuitively recognisable. Also usable as paperweights, these travertine animals have small defects visible in the photo. As visible in the photo, the smaller sculpture has 3 damaged spines, while the middle one has a micro scratch on just one spine. Reach out for any additional questions.

  • 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.
