Willy Rizzo Two Tier Console Table In Chrome & Brass Linea Flaminia - 1970s
-
Description
Exceptionally large console table by Willy Rizzo from his Linea Flaminia collection a two tier console table in chromed metal with solid brass details and smoked glass shelves. Would fit well in a hollywood regency inspired glam interior, although the design has quite minimalist features.
Imagination and necessity launched Willy Rizzo into the world of furniture design. As a photographer of Playboys and Starlets, he had a ready-made customer base eager to build their living quarters around an ultra-modern Rizzo piece and items that remain as timeless as his images. Willy Rizzo was uniquely placed as a designer for the Dolce Vita, being himself a part of the world for which he was designing. Infamous playboys, such as Rodolfo Parisi, Gigli Rizzi and Franco Rapetti, were some of his earliest clients. Salvador Dalí commissioned a number of pieces, as did Brigitte Bardot for the interior of La Madrague in St. Tropez. Being a consummate playboy of the era, Rizzo’s client list is testament to how close his furniture was to the mark. -
