Item Description
A masterful example of Carlo Scarpa’s design brilliance, this Sarpi Table was created for Simon Gavina in Bologna, Italy, in 1970. The table features a brushed stainless steel frame held together with Scarpa’s signature visible recessed screws, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship and architectural precision. The glass top with elegantly rounded edges rests securely on the frame, supported by round brass fittings with rubber inserts, combining industrial detail with subtle refinement. The interplay of metal, brass, and glass exemplifies Scarpa’s thoughtful material contrasts and functional elegance. Offered in excellent vintage condition, this table is both a timeless functional piece and a collectible work of art, perfect for design enthusiasts and Scarpa collectors alike. From architecture to works in glass, from design projects to preparing museum exhibitions, the work of Carlo Scarpa has always stood out in the unmistakable way in which it manages to bring together his love for materials, his attention to detail and his masterly elaboration of organic and Wrightian poetics.
