About the Item

The sculptural table 'Bangles House of Gucci' was chosen by Ridley Scott for his film 'HOUSE OF GUCCI' starring Lady Gaga, Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, Adam Driver, Salma Hayek, Jared Leto. Ridley Scott personally expressed the desire to lacquer the tabletop in glossy Gucci orange. The table, a unique piece, was used in two important scenes which were filmed in the center of Rome, Italy. It is hand made in mirror polished stainless steel. Dimensions: L 350 x W 120 x H 76 cm. Unique piece. This sculptural table is the original that was used in the House of Gucci movie. The bottom of the table top is signed with a work title by the film team. Story: The architects Francesco Barberini & Nina A. Gunnell were contacted by the assistant of Ridley Scott as he personally fell in love with our sculptural tables called ‘Bangles’. The request was to custom make a table for some very important scenes in his new movie ‘HOUSE OF GUCCI’ starring Lady Gaga, Al Pacino, Adam Driver, Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek, Jared Leto and many more. The table needed to be very large and have a bright, glossy lacquered tabletop in a particular orange which required a careful research and various tests. It was a specific wish of Ridley Scott himself to follow the work in process with a photo documentation as it was vital for two film scenes to have this special color with a significant reflection. The scenes indeed were important, Adam Driver personally sat on the table in one of the scenes, examination the CV of his new future in-house designer Tom Ford. The second scene was a meeting with no-one less than editor-in-Chief of Vogue, Anna Wintour. The table is a talking piece, a sculptural artwork which was put into scene several times in one of the most watched movies of 2021. Bangles ‘House of Gucci’ is a unique piece. The artworks by Barberini & Gunnell are regularly shown at international art fairs, such as PAD London, PAD Genève, PAD Monaco, Salon Art and Design New York, Art Miami.
