1973 “Cornaro” Sofa & Armchair Set by Carlo Scarpa for Gavina

Informazioni sull’articolo

1973 “Cornaro” Sofa & Armchair Set by Carlo Scarpa for Gavina – Iconic Italian Modernist Design Designed by Carlo Scarpa in 1973, the Cornaro seating set for Gavina epitomizes timeless Italian modernism. This ensemble includes a three-seat sofa and two matching armchairs, all showcasing Scarpa’s signature fusion of sculptural form and luxurious comfort. Each piece features a low-profile silhouette with wide seating and elegant lines, anchored by a robust ash-wood frame and deep, plush cushions. Distinctive leather strap lacing secures the cushions to the frame, blending functionality with decorative flair. Widely admired by collectors and designers alike, this sculptural set is equally at home in both contemporary and classic interiors. Features Scarpa drew inspiration from his native Venice and a fascination with Japanese minimalism. The Cornaro series (named after a historic Venetian family) exemplifies this synthesis: a strong geometric wooden base supports plush, enveloping cushions. The design celebrates the encounter of two opposites—between the angular ash frame and soft upholstery. Exposed black leather straps and brass grommets not only secure the cushions but also highlight the piece’s artisanal craftsmanship, reflecting Scarpa’s meticulous attention to detail. Each frame is handcrafted from solid ash wood, often finished with a fine lacquer to accentuate the grain. The generously padded seat and back cushions—originally in high-quality fabric or leather—provide exceptional lounge comfort. Scarpa’s innovative design uses visible leather ties as both a functional fastener and an aesthetic accent. Together, these elements embody the superb Italian craftsmanship of the era and ensure the set’s lasting durability. For interior designers and collectors, the Cornaro set offers both a statement piece and practical seating. Its bold yet harmonious aesthetic pairs beautifully with mid-century or contemporary decor. As a complete original set from 1973, it is especially rare and highly valued in the vintage design market. The Cornaro remains a testament to Scarpa’s legacy, blending practicality with sculptural form and providing a luxurious, artful lounge experience.
