About the Item

Overall fair vintage condition with signs of wear including scratches, pitting, warping and oxidation. Nicely engineered and could be installed either way around. Probably 1960s or 1970s; unsigned. Style of Frigerio and Borsani designs of the time. Approximate dimensions: W 173cm x H 92.5cm x D 2cm.

    By Luciano Frigerio
    Located in London, GB
    Headboard with large Brutalist bronze sculpture, model "Aurora" by Frigerio, Italy, 1968. The headboard comprises a large Brutalist sand-cast sculpture, overlaid on an arc of textured lacquered metal, which has a deep gold finish. The piece is in very nice vintage condition. We have left the sculpture unpolished and it has a developed an aged patina, ranging from brown to gold. There are minor losses to the finish of the headboard frame, both the arc and the cross-bars. The sculpture is bolted to the bed frame; it appears it could be unbolted and used separately, though we have not tried to do so. Approximate dimensions: Sculpture W 173 cm x H 49 cm Headboard W 185 cm x H 108 cm Please be aware this listing is for the headboard only. The remaining three sections of the bed surround...
