Elvira Armchair Bespoke Masterpiece by Angela Ardisson Bronze and Leather
About the Item
Elvira is a sculpture armchair and a bespoke masterpiece created by Angela Ardisson for her Avio Collection in 1997. The design of the precious bronze castings draws its unique inspiration from the fuselage of airplanes.
The bearing structure consists of two numbered castings made of brass, which are entirely hand-sculpted. All the carved areas inside the castings are oxidized with a matt copper green finish and stand in beautiful contrast to the external metal profiles, which are mirror-polished. Also, the back support on the ground is a bronze casting. The padding is made of a thermoforming foam which can adjust to the body temperature and ensure maximum comfort. The coating in grain leather softly maintains the shape of the armchair, despite its elasticity and adaptability to the body shape. The ultra-soft leather wraps around all the curved parts and round details of the armchair, including the concave part of the seat. This Elvira leather armchair is a one-of-a-kind piece, the last one of a numbered brass series created by Angela Ardisson.
The powder pink color matches beautifully with the copper green castings. The soft arm-rest padding on the head of the bronze casting can rotate easily at 360 degrees to leave space for any kind of object or simply to enjoy a glass of wine.
Elvira is handcrafted in Italy by a team of skilled artisans: Angela has supervised and coordinated the work of upholsterers and masters of fusion through the sand casting processes, which utilizes expendable sand molds to form complex metal parts. The surface treatment of the metal is at the same time spontaneous and controlled: the natural oxidation meets its polished profile. An extraordinary piece of furniture, rich in details of minimalist beauty, which will take your interiors to the next level.

Angela Ardisson
Angela Ardisson is an Italian artist specializing in product design. She has been pursuing her creative and design activity since 1987, exploring the boundless universe of matter. Metals, since 1994, have been the key factor of the most creative moments of her career: brass, iron, bronze, silver and copper melted together and mixed with blown glass.
The passion for multi-disciplinary design defines her artistic eclecticism.
She has taken part in the Milan Design Week/Fuori Salone every year since 1989, often joining more events at the same time. Yesterday as today, the most outstanding signature of her art
is the combination of lines and chromatic shades due to the natural oxidation of metals,
which are organically treated. The love for light, shadows and reflections is the leitmotiv
of her entire work, which she likes to define “the art of living matter”. In 2000 she founded Artplayfactory, her workshop and creative studio in Milan, where she currently works and creates. She has been collaborating with Baxter since 2013 and her brass suspension lamp “Lais” is still successfully featured in their collections.

Elda, Brass and Glass Ceiling Lamp by Angela Ardisson
Located in Milano, IT
The suspension lamp Elda was Angela Ardisson’s first glass lamp, born as a single piece in 2017. The name of this light project is a tribute to her maternal grand- mother, Elda Garrisi, who lived between the 30s and 80s. She was elegant and charming and had a passion for the Art Deco furniture and ornaments, from which this lamp draws inspiration.? Resembling the Venetian Murrine, Elda’s hand-twisted glass pole encapsulates an elongated brass section containing a LED light source.
Thanks to these stratifications, Elda’s brass looks like melted gold from which light transpires. A dimmable special liquid light, strong but shoots in the same time by the color of the same light I use for it. Its suspended pole has a reclining junction.
With its 3 cm of diameter, the Elda suspension lamp can be described as a very thin spear of light, and, among all of Angela Ardisson’s lamps, it is certainly the most versatile for any interior project.
The process of hand-twisting the glass around itself undoubtedly enhances the charming elegance of this lamp.
Thanks to its aesthetic minimalism and technical light features, the Elda lamp coexists with the most diverse interior architectures.
This hanging lamp also comes in a wall version, both vertical and horizontal. Elda suspended lamp is well suited to light up tables...

Oxygen Spheres, Ceiling Installation by Different Lamps by Angela Ardisson
Located in Milano, IT
The Oxygen Spheres are a collection of light and graceful suspension lamps.Their structure is carefully wrapped with a metallic fabric, a work of high craftmanship.
These lamps are extremely light even in their largest versions and are therefore suitable for setting up rooms with plasterboard false ceilings, which cannot support weights.
Their metal frames are made of a very thin wire, welded together with great skill to become a strong structure and support for the metal fabric.
In order to obtain such perfect spherical shapes, regardless of the hostile and sharp metal fabric covering them, the type of work carried out recalls the haute couture processes and requires the greatest attention for the smallest details.
The result of this working process is a sophisticated product with a soft and round volume.
The light flooding from the heart of the Oxygen lamps is crossed exclusively by the thin metal veil, which allows an excellent intensity (dimmable in multiple compositions), adding transparency and lightness to day light environments and creating detailed shadows even in the absence of electric light. The lightning element inside is cocooned in a transparent glass cylinder.
Available also in different tones of bronze: an elegant and calm palette ranging from brass tone to dark bronze.
The fabric of these lamps is coated with layers of precious metals like gold, silver and bronze, the alchemic process being the focus of Angela Ardisson’s entire work.
Oxygen lamps are perfect for lightning up the living areas, spacious entry halls, stairwells on more levels. In their smallest combination they are ideal to light up the dinner table.
This precious and thick metallic coating triggers the most unexpected colour effects whenever the layers meet.
