Giuseppe Scapinelli. Coffee table "Aranha", c. 1960
About the Item
This "Aranha" model coffee table is a classic in which we find the style of its designer Giuseppe Scapinelli.
Based on four feet in solid Caviuna wood with delicate curves, the design of its structure is a feat of technique and finesse in the mastery of the material. Scapinelli was able to play with wood as a virtuoso in order to compose this table with an inimitable shape of great visually light elegance and sensual tact thanks to the quality of the finishes that knows how to make the wood particularly pleasant to the touch. The tray is made of glass to keep and highlight the powerful beauty that Scapinelli knows how to find in the choice and work of Caviuna wood, a species with warm and soft shades.
This coffee table is therefore a piece of furniture, a sculpture and a work of art at the same time.

- Giuseppe Scapinelli, Nesting Tables, 1960By Giuseppe ScapinelliLocated in PARIS, FRAs usual, Scapinelli distinguishes himself with these nesting tables "gigogne" by the elegance of the lines and the finesse of the realization. Made of solid wood (probably Pau marfim, one of his favourite species), the light and graceful base combined with the glass of the tops gives the whole an airy aspect reinforced by the dynamism of the three pieces. Provenance: Private Collection - Brazil. Born in 1911 in Modena, Italy, Giuseppe Scapinelli is a versatile artist. An architect, painter, ceramist, sculptor and designer, he constantly reinvents himself in search of beauty, whatever the medium. In the post-war context, with his diploma in architecture obtained in 1941 and his immense imagination in his luggage, he organized his departure for Brazil in 1948. In 1950, he founded his own architectural firm in Sao Paulo, where he enjoyed success and rubbed shoulders with high society. A perfect Italian dandy, bon vivant...Category
