Luciano Frigerio Mirror from the Seventies

About the Item

Die-cast brass mirror manufactured by Luciano Frigerio 1970s. Luciano Frigerio was born in Desio in 1928. His father Giovanni started, from 1889, a high artisan cabinet-making workshop. Luciano attended kindergarten at the Paola di Rosa College in Desio, where he found Tommaso Giussani, who would later be appointed, during his ecclesiastical career, Monsignor, as a classmate. This friendship and mutual esteem would be consolidated over time so much so that Monsignor Giussani himself commissioned in 1982, for Pope John XXIII, two lecterns that are still visible in the Basilica of St. Peter and Paul in Rome, positioned under the Bernini altar. Luciano Frigerio completed his technical-administrative studies price the Collegio Pio XI, graduating in accountancy and cultivating since his adolescence two great passions: furniture design and composition for music. The piano would always accompany him, reunions with his musician friends becoming a habit, leading him to compose several pieces of jazz and listening music, some of which were interpreted and played by flutist Severino Gazzelloni. In 1977 he obtained the qualification of Master Composer and, with his registration, obtained copyrights to his music, which was broadcast on Rai radio. The socio-economic reality of Brianza, offered in those years, strong entrepreneurial possibilities in the art of furniture. The reading of texts and magazines in the sector that he had sent from the United States since the 1960s, the assiduous frequentation of prestigious Canturese workshops, where he often met, leaders of the school such as Gio Ponti, Franco Albini, Carlo De Carli and Tapio Wirkkala, transformed his family business into a company that looked to the international market. In 1973 he was awarded the honor of Commendatore of the Italian Republic. A staff of technicians who worked closely with Frigerio helped him realize his dream: furniture as a unique piece, made by combining and adding together all possible materials of excellence. This gave rise to the Sculpture Furniture in solid wood and the headboards for Sculpture Beds in cast bronze that testify to a new style, different and opposed to the industrial production of that era.
