Parigi and Prina for Molteni, ‘Orix’ Desk, Red, c.1970s
A sculptural and innovative ‘Orix’ desk designed by Italian architects Paolo Parigi and Renato Prina for Molteni, circa 1970s. This striking design combines a molded ABS plastic frame in high-gloss red with a smoked glass work surface and integrated steel detailing. The desk also features a built-in overhead lamp and concealed cable management system, reflecting the period’s fascination with futuristic, high-tech office furniture.

Rare in this original red colourway, with all components intact.
