Coffee Table in Caviuna wood, Giuseppe Scapinelli, Brazilian Mid-Century Modern

About the Item

Discover the breathtaking beauty and elegance of the Giuseppe Scapinelli coffee table, a true masterpiece designed by the master Italian-Brazilian designer during the 1960s. This remarkable piece is a perfect example of Scapinelli's unique and unparalleled design expertise. The coffee table is crafted from Caviuna wood, a rare and exotic hardwood known for its warm and rich color. The structure of the piece is characterized by a perfect balance between curved and straight lines, with a glass top that adds a touch of sophistication and elegance. The proportions of the coffee table are impeccable, making it a true work of art that is both functional and aesthetically stunning. Giuseppe Scapinelli was one of the most important designers of his time in Brazil, bringing a unique perspective to the Brazilian design scene during the post-war period. Born in Modena, Italy, Scapinelli studied architecture in Florence before moving to São Paulo, where he established his own design studio, Atelier Scapinelli. Scapinelli's work was characterized by gentle curves, tapered edges, and more organic forms, in contrast to the straight lines and geometric shapes that were popular at the time. His singular sculptural style can be recognized immediately, and his work in ceramics, painting, sculpture, and furniture design has made him one of the most expressive names in Brazilian design. The Giuseppe Scapinelli coffee table is a rare and exceptional piece of furniture that is sure to elevate any interior, making it a perfect addition to any design lover's collection. Its beauty and elegance are timeless, a testament to the artist's dedication to creating pieces that are both functional and aesthetically stunning.
