Gianfranco Frattini table for Bernini 60's

About the Item

A classic of 1960s Italian design. Round table model 522 in rosewood, rare, manufactured by Bernini designer Gianfranco Frattini. Frattini graduated in Architecture at Politecnico di Milano in 1953. He opened his professional studio in Milan, after working in the studio of his teacher and mentor Gio Ponti. His collaboration with Cesare Cassina for his eponymous company began in 1954, followed by collaborations with many other industrialists, such as Bernini, Arteluce, Acerbis, Fantoni, Artemide  (for which, among other products, he designed with Livio Castiglioni the historic lamp Boalum), Luci, Knoll, Lema and many others. In 1956, he co-founded the Association for Industrial Design and throughout his career he worked in both industrial design and architecture, focusing in particular on interiors. He was a board member of the Milan Triennale. A great connoisseur of handcrafted wood, he forged a long and fruitful professional partnership with the master craftsman of Bovisio Masciago (Milan), Pierluigi Ghianda. Glass items designed by Frattini for Progetti are in the permanent collection of the Museo di Arte Moderna and the Boalum lamp (designed with Livio Castiglioni) produced by Artemide is in the collection of the Smithsonian, at Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. He died in Milan on 6 April 2004.
