About the Item

Astonishing midcentury coffee table in lucite with tortoiseshell effect and mirrored glass. This unique piece has gorgeous yet simple straight lines, clearly inspired by Willy Rizzo's rationalist design. The table has an amazing blend of materials, mixing a structure in tortoiseshell effect lucite with a bronzed mirrored glass top. This gorgeous table is squared with huge (12 cm x 12 cm) and wonderful squared legs. An incredible piece that will widen the space in a midcentury entrance hall with its elegant mirror or smarten a modern living room with its lines. Born in Naples, Willy Rizzo started his career as a photographer in Paris very early in the 40s. Great photographer of personalities, fashion and great reports, he has exhibited all over the world: at Galerie Agathe Gaillard in Paris, at Galerie Bukamura in Tokyo, at Maison de la Photographie in Moscow, at Mallett Gallery in New York and London, at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco, or even at the MUBE in São Paulo. In 1968, he moved to Rome and began his work designer for his personal needs because, according to him, "Scandinavian furniture was neither comfortable enough nor luxurious enough. " When asked, he creates his workshops in 1970 and launched its points of sale worldwide." Imagination and strong modern style" are the words that define his style. Today his Elliptical marble table is exhibited at MoMA in New York. Willy Rizzo married Dominique Rizzo in 1979. They have three children, Willy Jr, Camilla and Gloria. In 2009, they opened the Willy Rizzo Design and Photography Studio at 12 rue de Verneuil in Paris 7e. Willy Rizzo died in 2013 but his Studio continued to support his work through exhibitions and numerous projects.
