Italian Design Artcurial (November 2022)

About the November 2022 Artcurial exhibition

This Italian Design auction was held in Paris on 30 November 2022  at Artcurial.

We were honored to present a collection of radical design with exceptional pieces such as the Rumble sofa by Gianni Pettena or a prototype Globo Tissurato lamp by Ugo La Pietra.  This were followed by a selection of 200 pieces of Italian design, with classic ones such as the cabinet from the collaboration between Gio Ponti and Pietro Chiesa, a pair of Triennale armchairs by Ponti, but also more modern pieces such as the suspension lamps by Studio BBPR for Torre Velasca or the « Montanara » sofa by Gaetano Pesce.

We were honored to sell Ettore Sottsass’s « Festone » lamp mod.12625, recently presented at the « Ettore Sottsass, l’objet magique » exhibition at the Centre Pompidou.
