About the Item
The ‘Sapporo’ chest of drawers, designed by Mario Marenco and manufactured by Mobilgirgi in Italy in 1978, is a striking piece of Italian modern design. Crafted from richly grained walnut veneer and solid walnut components in varying tones, this chest showcases a captivating layered effect that adds depth and visual interest. Its geometric aesthetic is further enhanced by the striped panels that define its surface, giving the piece a bold, architectural look.
Featuring four spacious drawers, the chest offers ample storage while maintaining a sleek profile. The oval-shaped top adds a touch of playfulness to the otherwise clean, straight-lined design, making it a unique and eye-catching piece. In good original condition, this chest exemplifies superb craftsmanship and the elegance of Italian furniture design, combining form and function in a distinctive, timeless way.
Mario Marenco (1933–2019) was an Italian architect, designer, and creative talent celebrated for his innovative and playful approach to design. Known for his work with iconic Italian brands like Mobilgirgi and Poltrona Frau, Marenco created furniture that blended clean lines, bold geometric forms, and unique details. His designs, such as the "Sapporo" chest of drawers, reflect a blend of functionality and artistic expression. Beyond his work in design, Marenco was also a popular figure in Italian television and radio, known for his humor and charisma. His multifaceted career made him a distinctive and beloved figure in Italian modernism.
