About the Item
Iconic and instantly recognizable ‘Orix’ desk designed by Vittorio Parigi and nani Prina for Molteni & Co in 1971.
Seen here in its most beautiful colourway (according to us), a lovely mustard yellow.
The desk allows for truly intuitive and engaging use, from storing items underneath its opening glass top or grabbing a book from the oscillating bookcase on the right-hand side.
The desk is composed of a single piece of moulded ABS plastic (the only ABS piece Molteni manufactured in the 70s) which rests on a chromed tubular steel base. The glass top opens and shuts safely with a small dent which allows the users’ hand to fold it down smoothly.
The piece seen here features its' built in foldable desk lamp
Produced by Molteni in the 1970s in Italy.
In very good vintage condition with smaller expected signs of age, as indicated in the photos. Small scratches are present on the plastic and glass as expected. Glass top folding mechanism functions flawlessly.
Depending on the destination, the table may be disassembled for shipping to ensure a safe arrival.
Width: 103.5 cm / 40.7 inches
Depth: 64.5 cm / 25.4 inches
Height: 82.5 cm / 32.5 inches
