Informazioni sull’articolo

Stunning set of four “Monk” chairs designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Molteni in 1973. In the design of the Monk chairs, Afra and Tobia Scarpa pay close attention to the expressive qualities of the materials, studying shapes and finishes that best convey them. The seat and backrest are made of original black Molteni leather, in excellent condition, fitted onto two steel tubular elements shaped to ensure great seating comfort. The legs, made of solid national walnut wood, are joined in pairs through interlocking joints and clearly show the fixing of the crosspieces. The overall condition is excellent, with only a few tiny signs of age on the leather that add character and authenticity to the set. Bibl.: Giuliana Gramigna, *Repertorio del Design Italiano 1950–2000*, Allemandi, 2011, p. 222 Antonio Piva, *Afra e Tobia Scarpa Architetti e Designers*, Mondadori, Milan, 1985, p. 145 Afra and Tobia Scarpa were two Italian designers known for their work in architecture and industrial design. Afra Bianchin Scarpa (1937–2011) and Tobia Scarpa (born in 1935) worked together as a couple both in life and in their professional careers, forming one of the most prolific and influential duos in the landscape of 20th-century Italian design. Both Afra and Tobia Scarpa graduated in architecture at the Iuav University of Venice, where they studied under leading architects such as Carlo Scarpa (Tobia's brother) and Giuseppe Samonà. After completing their studies, they began working together at the studio of Carlo Scarpa, where they had the opportunity to develop their unique and sophisticated style. Their collaboration led to the creation of numerous iconic projects in furniture and interior design, often characterized by timeless elegance and meticulous attention to detail. Their works have been produced by world-renowned brands such as B&B Italia, Cassina, and Flos. Afra and Tobia Scarpa received numerous awards and accolades over the course of their careers, further solidifying their status as pioneers in the field of contemporary design. Their legacy continues to inspire generations of designers and design enthusiasts around the world. Molteni & C. is a prestigious Italian company founded in 1934 in Giussano, in the province of Monza and Brianza, specializing in the production of high-end furniture and furnishings. It is one of the most renowned names in Italian design worldwide, thanks to a perfect combination of artisanal tradition and technological innovation. Craftsmanship and attention to detail are key elements of the company, which uses excellent materials and innovative techniques to ensure functional and durable products. Throughout its history, Molteni has collaborated with some of the most important designers and architects on the international scene, including Gio Ponti, Jean Nouvel, Patricia Urquiola, and Vincent Van Duysen, the brand’s current creative director. These partnerships have led to the creation of iconic and timeless pieces, further enhancing the brand’s image. One of the most significant aspects of Molteni’s production is the reissue of furniture designed by Gio Ponti, a master of Italian design, which has made historical creations relevant once again by adapting them to contemporary tastes. The company is part of a larger group that also includes Dada, specializing in designer kitchens; UniFor, which produces furniture for offices and public spaces; and Citterio, integrated into UniFor. With a strong international presence, Molteni operates worldwide through flagship stores in cities such as Milan, London, Paris, New York, and Tokyo, and regularly participates in major events such as the Salone del Mobile in Milan to present its latest innovations. In recent years, the company has significantly invested in sustainability, committing to reducing the environmental impact of its production processes and choosing eco-friendly materials. Today, Molteni & C. represents the excellence of Italian design, successfully combining tradition and modernity, establishing itself as a global symbol of luxury and style.
