Marc Newson Red 'Gello' Table Made for Les 3 Suisses in 1994, Original Box

About the Item

The Gello was only produced for a very short time and only a limited quantity few are left in existence. An extraordinary clever design. As a mail-order product the table needed to be ultra lightweight and easy to assemble. Newson designed the table in three very simple parts, choosing a high frequency welded PVC plastic sheet for the base, a piece of plastic tubing to hold it together and a vacuum formed polystyrene for the top. 3 Suisses is a French mail order company, the largest in Europe. It commissions many of its lines from some of the worlds leading designers. The "Gello" table is one of its new designs for 1994. It is produced in 4 colours, blue, green, red and transparent. For Newson, the experience of working with 3 Suisses represented a new opportunity, a new way of working. It was the first time he had been commissioned to design a cheap product for a mass market. History notes Marc Newson used the table as a demonstration model. He brought it over from France to Sydney during his visit in July-August 1994. Table, 'Gello', PVC/polystyrene/metal, Marc Newson/3 Suisses, Australia/France, 1994. The unassembled table comprises three parts.
