1980s Green Canopy Bed and Chest of Drawers Dark Lacquer for Sormani, Italy
About the Item
Canopy bed
An unusual canopy bed, named Fauno, manufactured by Sormani in very dark green (almost black) glossy lacquer, with 4 columns in grey nextel and a metal canopy in light apple green. The bed has multifunctional structures all around: two trays that work as night tables, one front tray that works as further support (for a TV-screen, for instance), and a back shelf of 17cm (6" 11/16) for your favorite books.
All "trays" are adjustable as seen in pictures and can be also adjusted in height.
The bed includes a wooden bed slat (see picture) with a metal frame, and a provisional mattress, while you buy your own favorite. Mattress size should be cm 160x200x20-25 (63 in × 79 in x ca. 9" 27/32).
Size of bed: H 225 x W 175 x D 235 cm (7' 4" 37/64 x 5' 8" 57/64 x 7' 8" 33/64)
Size of trays: cm 47 x 32 (1' 6" 1/2 x 1' 19/32).
Height of bed (without mattress) cm 40 (1' 3" 3/4)
Commode
Chest of drawers in very dark green lacquer (the famous 20-gloss silky mat lacquer of Sormani) with six spacious drawers: two in elegant salmon lacquer, standing out with a colorful touch and four in dark green. Please note the skillful shape of each drawer front: a triangular shape with a recessed, convex upper part. In its simplicity, a real work of craftsmanship for an Industrial manufacturer such as Sormani of Arosio, Italy.
Size of commode: cm H 78 W 160 D 52 (H 2' 6" 45/64 x W 5' 2" 63/64 x D 1' 8" 15/32)
Perfect for the entrance or the bedroom of a sleek city apartment or even for a contemporary mountain hut.
The piece is in very good conditions. Just normal wear and tear in some parts.
Davide Pizzigoni is a multifaceted artist and designer, who began his creative career in the mid-Eighties, sponsored by other designers such as Alessandro Mendini. He worked for Olivetti, Bulgari (a collection of porcelains manufactured by Rosenthal), Rubelli, Interflex. He is also appreciated for his works related to theater and opera settings.
Sormani discovered the young and talented Pizzigoni, together with his partner Manolo De Giorgi, right before the Salone del Mobile in 1989 and commissioned a series of bedroom furnishings of which this chest of drawers, named CASSIS, is a witness. It matches well with the FAUNO canopy bed of the same collection.
This piece is in chipboard and mdf, with feet in chromed metal.
The piece is in perfect condition, has never been used, and just shows an almost invisible little scratch on the left side (see picture) and some wear and tear (superficial rust – removable with suitable product) on the metal feet.
Both items come with a “Certificate of Authenticity” on original vintage letterhead of the manufacturer.
