Gianfranco Frattini (Italy 1926-2004)

Cassina model 780/783 stacking tables. Circa 1960s-70s

76cm diameter x 19.5 – 34cm high. Each table has its original Cassina label to the inside.

Rare set of four nesting/ stacking tables that rarely come up for sale in this large and low size. This playful design tables each have a circular formica top that is black on one side and white on the other that allow for multiple set up possibilities as they can be adapted to any interior design.

The larger and lower scale of this set compared to the higher narrower versions gives the design more of a ’70s lounge feel to the design.

Price: 6.900 euro

Ib Kofod-Larsen (Denmark 1921-2003)

OPE Sweden 1960s. Leather and solid teak wood.

A classic ‘Seal’ chair in leather and teak by Kofod-Larsen who was one of the top midcentury Scandinavian architects during the era. This one is in absolute top condition. The original design is from the 1950s. This chair is a 1960s production that was reupholstered in Sweden around the 1990s.

It is very comfortable as intended and of course stylish enough to sympathetically fit in to any quality interior setting.

Pierre Paulin (1927-2009)

Artifort F444 lounge chair.

Iconic F444 lounge chair designed by Pierre Paulin in the 1960s taken into production by Artifort. Made out of a robust steel frame paired with an elegant leather slung seat. This chair is not only visually striking but also very comfortable. Purchased from its first owner (that rarely sat in it!), this example is still in superb original condition. One of the best examples of this chair we ever had.

VP-Europa lamp. 1970s

Verner Panton (Denmark 1926-1998)

VP-Europe lamp. 1977. Manufactured by Louis Poulsen in the late 1970s.

Chromed plastic foot with moulded glass shade. The lamp’s name Europa derives from the series of lighting designed by Verner Panton for the hotel Europa in Lugano.

This large table lamp has a diameter of 48cm and a height of 63cm which is particularly big for a table lamp. The main component is a mouth-blown shade made of clear and frosted glass. The red painted lamp cap produces beautiful light effects within the lamp.

This lamp was only produced over a short period of time which when combined with the complexity of moulding the glass shade make it one of Verner Panton´s most rare and sought-after lamps.

Price: 2,995.00 euro

A beautifully proportioned and simply constructed limed oak wood low/salon table. It has a series of small plywood inserts visible on the shorter sides and visible box joints where the legs attach to the table top. The surface has been lime waxed.
