Description
Bonacina, attributed to Two-seater sofa and armchair Rattan Date of creation: circa 1950–1960 Sofa: W 98 cm (approx.) Armchair: W 57 cm (approx.) Condition consistent with its age, with a beautiful patina on the rattan A rare rattan lounge set comprising an armchair and a two-seater bench, remarkable for the quality of its bending and the elegance of its organic lines. The frames are made from hot-bent rattan, with double curved armrests and seats formed from a delicate weave of rattan canes that follow a continuous curve between the seat and the backrest. The construction demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship: multiple uprights, cross-bars reinforced with rattan bindings, complex curves and particularly harmonious proportions. The design evokes the finest post-war Italian furniture and is reminiscent of pieces produced by Bonacina, as well as certain models attributed to Franco Albini or Vittorio Bonacina, although no definitive attribution can be made at this stage. The set is distinguished by its light, sculptural aesthetic, emblematic of Mediterranean furniture from the 1950s, now highly sought after by collectors of Italian design. Comparative bibliography: Italian designs by Bonacina, Dal Vera and Vittorio Bonacina, circa 1950–1960.
