from Wava Carpenter: The Borsani family
"Gaetano Borsani, Osvaldo’s father, launched the Borsani family in the furniture business with Atelier Borsani in Varedo.
Under Gaetano's direction, Atelier Borsani Varedo produced bespoke furniture first in style like Wright and Mackintosh in the 1910s and 1920s; and then in the 1930s, the aesthetic moved towards Deco. Not long after, when Osvaldo came into play as a graduated architect, modernist and rationalist principles were introduced. During the 1940s, the war defined a threshold between what was before and what would come after—a time of generational battles between father and son—which gave birth to very interesting and prolific creations, particularly the collaborations with artists of the day, like Lucio Fontana and others.
After the war, Osvaldo naturally took a greater role in the company and brought it quickly into the New Era. And then against his family opinion he founded Tecno. From a design historical point of view, this was a key moment. This was a company where Osvaldo could not only experiment with modernism but also make a large-scale contribution to industry in Italy. Osvaldo is the only example of designer-entrepreneur-marketer-distributor-inventor, all at global scale, all in one head.

Sourced in a private estate of an important Italian collector in Turin, Pendimont, this museum quality piece of furniture was probably made on commission and recalls the works of Gabriele Capello known as “il Moncalvo” on Pelagio Palagi...
