About the Item

Ico Parisi, a renowned Italian designer of the 20th century, was celebrated for his innovative and forward-thinking approach to furniture design. Collaborating with Brugnoli Mobili Cantu, a reputable Italian manufacturer known for its craftsmanship, Parisi created unique pieces that balanced form and function. This bench, crafted in the 1970s, exemplifies the synergy between Parisi's design vision and Brugnoli Mobili Cantu’s skillful execution. Design This wooden bench showcases a harmonious blend of materials and minimalist detailing. Walnut is used for the robust legs, while beech wood appears on the sides, adding a subtle contrast to the overall look. The design incorporates various wood species, creating a palette of warm, natural tones that play off each other. Each piece is precisely positioned, allowing delicate, linear patterns to emerge as ornamental details across the surface. The straight lines add structure, while soft, rounded edges soften the look, lending an understated elegance to the piece. This bench embodies Parisi’s design philosophy: a seamless integration of elegance and practicality. Through the choice of materials and precise craftsmanship, the bench becomes more than a functional object, it highlights the beauty of subtle detailing and natural wood. Condition This bench is in very good condition. The bench comes with a certificate of authenticity from the Ico Parisi archive.

Free-hanging Console or Desk In Walnut, Italy 1960's
Located in Hellouw, NL
A refined sharpness combined with elegance are the first things that come to mind when describing this Italian free-hanging console completely veneered in walnut. The contours and clean lines are reminiscent of the designs of Ico Parisi. Design At first the lines seem straight, but if we look closely at the raised beam or edge, we see that it actually consists of a pyramid shape. In this case, this geometric shape ensures a soft transition from the top to the wall. Because the side panels also slope towards the rear, the ensemble of lines is complete and feels harmonious.Viewed along the length, the console is slim and this also creates a kind of dynamism or speed. On the left side there are two drawers with handles, subtly placed. On the right side of these drawers, a space has been left free where a narrow chair...
