About the Item

Charming desk from the characteristic Italian style of Ico Parisi. The table has a very clean line and architecturally a beautiful design. The wooden structure of the desk is completely covered in walnut wood. This polished material transforms this desk into a modernist sculpture with sharp, geometric angles. The desk is made up of a top with two small drawers underneath, which can be opened using two brass handles. On the hips there are legs, very beautiful and slender. The legs are well shaped, giving a very particular design to the desk. An unmistakable trademark for those who know the Italian designer Ico Parisi. Multifunctional its use, at the entrance along a hallway, in a room like a writing table, as a dressing table with a mirror on it.

20th Century Ico Parisi Wooden Writing Desk with Two Drawers, 50s
By Ico Parisi
Located in Turin, Turin
Ico Parisi was born in Palermo, Italy, in 1916, but as early as 1925 with his family he moved to Como, where in 1936 he graduated as a building surveyor and served an apprenticeship at the Terragni studio. Discharged from the front in 1943, he returned to Como and resumed his design activity, dealing with the creation of individual furnishings, exhibition layouts and interior architecture. He collaborated with Luisa Aiani, whom he married in 1947 and with whom he opened the studio La Ruota. In the 50s he designed furniture, first in one-piece and later for Industrial Production with companies such as Cassina. In the 60s, with the "Contenitoriumani" he began a new path aimed at defining a utopian-existential IDEA of living. The culmination of his research is between 1974 and 1976 with "Operation Arcevia," aimed at designing an entire Community. Here we have a wooden desk designed...
