Ico Parisi: Stunning Oval Dining Table in Elm, Glass, and Bronze, Italy 1950s

About the Item

Ico Parisi (1916 - 1996) and Luisa Parisi (1914 - 1990) A stunning and highly unusual dining table by visionary Italian designers Ico and Luisa Parisi, in blond elm with significant bronze detailing and a glass top. Four tapering, Y-shaped legs, joined by a rounded and carefully modeled bronze crossbar, are poised at dynamic angles supporting an oval top. Each beautifully carved line finds its echo in another: the Y of the legs in the X of the crossbar; the oval of the elm base in the oval of the glass; the tapered finials at the tops of the legs in the narrowing feet. Taken together, the whole is a sculptural masterpiece, each element perfectly balanced —and awe-inspiringly beautiful. This rare piece, a model of organic abstraction, bursts with grace and vitality, and is a harbinger of the continuous experimentation and dedication to beauty and craft which will inform the rest of the Parisis' career. The glass top can be replaced with a wood top at the buyer’s request. Italy, 1950’s. Dimensions: 86.5” L x 29.5” H x 44” D.
