About the Item

This extraordinary desk from the 1930s, part of the prestigious collection of Maurizio Marzadori, one of Italy's most prominent collectors of Rationalist design, is a unique and unrepeatable piece, with a history rooted in the heart of Italian Rationalism. Originating from the selection of furniture that was to be exhibited at the renowned Hotel Cà Pisani in Venice, this desk represents a rare example of industrial design that seamlessly combines aesthetics, functionality, and history. The green-painted steel legs, bearing the mark "Sapic 22 Proclamation," are a testament to the industrial craftsmanship of an era when design was pushing new boundaries. The green steel drawers and the wooden top, with its warm grain, create a fascinating contrast between cold and natural materials, giving the piece a unique personality. The skillful pairing of steel and wood reflects the vision of a time when innovation was at the core of design thinking. What makes this desk even more valuable is the fact that the manufacturing factory likely no longer exists, as many companies had to close during the Second World War. This detail makes the piece not only rare but possibly unique, giving it an invaluable significance, transforming it into a true testimony of a bygone era. Every detail, from the branded legs to the combination of materials, makes this desk not just a piece of furniture but a genuine masterpiece of Rationalist design, now impossible to replicate. A rare opportunity for collectors and anyone looking to own a piece of history, this desk embodies the very essence of industrial design and craftsmanship from a time that will never return.
