Gabetti & Isola Console Table in Black Lacquered Metal and Granite by Arbo 1970s
About the Item
Console table with a base in black lacquered metal and an ovoidal table top in granite, originally designed by Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola and Roberto Gabetti for the residential center Talponia based in Ivrea, and manufactured by Arbo during the 1970s.
The activity of the studio of Roberto Gabetti (1925 - 2000) and Aimaro Oreglia d'Isola (1928) began in the fifties of the twentieth century.
The Stock Exchange building, built in collaboration with Giorgio and Giuseppe Raineri in 1953, represents the first evidence of the design and layout of each individual part of the building, including furniture and fixed furnishings. The chairs, desks and sofas designed for the Stock Exchange are made by small Turin workshops (in particular the Colli di Torino furniture factory), with wood turned into organic shapes or veneered and polished and connected by open metal parts with a stiffening function, with extraordinary attention to detail. The chair with a "vertebrae" structure, in particular, conceived in 1952 in blackened beech wood, has two visible metal leaf springs, also dyed black, to support the backrest and seat, fixed with threaded screws and bolts.
The interiors and furnishings created for the Bottega d'Erasmo in 1953-1956 highlight the use of "functional anti-minimalist devices"(1), typical of 19th-century Victorian and Art Nouveau furniture: risers, drawers, compartments, double support surfaces for the tables, show a variety of essences and a use of elements typical of the production of that period, such as Vienna straw for example.
The collaboration with Olivetti of Ivrea dates back to 1968 for the construction of a building to be used as mini-apartments for recent graduates and new hires. The furnishings of the lodgings, the latter resolved through a modular system of "slices", are the work of Luciano Re and Guido Drocco (1942). The pieces of furniture, produced in small series, have modular support surfaces, in chromed tubular, rosewood and crystal, and are based on the element of the upright called Trilogy, consisting of an upright to which a semicircle is fixed which can act as a joint , support, base or skeleton for seats and furnishing accessories.
A more contemporary line of research begins in the seventies which sees its results, for example, in the production of some prototypes of modular Abs components to obtain stools, benches and armchairs and in the Tapizoo series, carpets in animal skin, designed originally for the preparation of the lodgings of the western residential unit, called Talponia, of the Olivetti complex in Ivrea

- Giovanni Offredi Sunny Round Pedestal Table in Wood and Glass by Saporiti 1970sBy Giovanni Offredi, SaporitiLocated in Montecatini Terme, ITSunny pedestal table with a structure in wood and a round-shaped tabletop in smoked glass, designed by Giovanni Offredi and manufactured by Saporiti during the 1970s. Giovanni Offredi was a prominent Italian furniture and product designer of the second half of the 20th century. As opposed to most of the other Italian furniture designers of his time, Giovanni Offredi was not an architect, nor did he start designing early in his professional career. Instead, Offredi partially fits the career path of some of the talented contemporary designers who pursue product design outside of formal education in architecture. The earliest furniture design work known by Giovanni Offredi consists of exemplary furnishings made specifically for some of wealthy families in Milan. Such is the case of the works done by Offredi for Casa C., in 1960, in Gorgonzola, a small town 14 miles from Milan. These works were designed with a surprisingly minimal simplicity and elegance, and they also clearly display a hallmark of his design work with the use of angular lines and exposed metal or wood frames—not unlike some of the modern Scandinavian designs of the time. In the late 1960s, Giovanni Offredi met Sergio Saporiti, the owner of an Italian design shop and furniture maker Saporiti, and in 1970, Offredi formalized a partnership with the furniture maker. This partnership would be long and successful and resulted in many furniture designs of distinct precision that were clearly modern and innovative and that went on to enjoy considerable commercial success. The most prominent furniture designs that Offredi made for Saporiti include the Paracarro table...Category
