About the Item

Console table with a base in black lacquered metal and an ovoidal table top in granite, originally designed by Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola and Roberto Gabetti for the residential center Talponia based in Ivrea and manufactured by Arbo during the 1970s. The activity of the studio of Roberto Gabetti (1925 - 2000) and Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola (1928) began in the fifties of the twentieth century. The Stock Exchange building, built in collaboration with Giorgio and Giuseppe Raineri in 1953, represents the first evidence of the design and layout of each part of the building, including furniture and fixed furnishings. The chairs, desks, and sofas designed for the Stock Exchange are made by small Turin workshops (in particular the Colli di Torino furniture factory), with wood turned into organic shapes or veneered and polished and connected by open metal parts with a stiffening function, with extraordinary attention to detail. The chair with a "vertebrae" structure, in particular, conceived in 1952 in blackened beech wood, has two visible metal leaf springs, also dyed black, to support the backrest and seat, fixed with threaded screws and bolts. The interiors and furnishings created for the Bottega d'Erasmo in 1953-1956 highlight the use of "functional anti-minimalist devices"(1), typical of 19th-century Victorian and Art Nouveau furniture: risers, drawers, compartments, double support surfaces for the tables, show a variety of essences and a use of elements typical of the production of that period, such as Vienna straw for example. The collaboration with Olivetti of Ivrea dates back to 1968 for the construction of a building to be used as mini-apartments for recent graduates and new hires. The furnishings of the lodgings, the latter resolved through a modular system of "slices", are the work of Luciano Re and Guido Drocco (1942). The pieces of furniture, produced in small series, have modular support surfaces, in chromed tubular, rosewood and crystal, and are based on the element of the upright called Trilogy, consisting of an upright to which a semicircle is fixed which can act as a joint , support, base or skeleton for seats and furnishing accessories. A more contemporary line of research began in the seventies which sees its results, for example, in the production of some prototypes of modular Abs components to obtain stools, benches, and armchairs and in the Tapizoo series, carpets in animal skin, designed originally for the preparation of the lodgings of the western residential unit, called Talponia, of the Olivetti complex in Ivrea
