Console with Ramage by Ico Parisi, 1950s

This extraordinary wall-mounted console, designed by the renowned Italian designer Ico Parisi in the 1950s, is a sublime example of the elegance and innovation that defined Italian design from that era.

Crafted with impeccable workmanship for ArteCasa of Cantù, the console is a true masterpiece of balance between sinuous shapes and warm materials, characteristic of modernist aesthetics. The smooth wood, with its natural grain accentuated by a glossy finish, conveys a sense of warmth and intimacy. The soft curves of the legs intertwine in an organic design, almost as if they were roots merging with the wall, creating a sensation of suspended lightness.

The surface of the console, thin and gently rounded at the edges, extends elegantly, inviting both contemplation and discreet use. Beneath it, a small drawer with a clean profile is almost hidden, like a secret kept within this work of art.

The entire composition expresses perfect harmony between functionality and sculptural beauty, making this console not just a piece of furniture but a true statement of style. It reflects Parisi’s craftsmanship and artistic vision, seamlessly blending tradition and innovation with unique sensitivity.

Every line, every detail conveys a sense of fluidity and movement, while its suspended structure gives it a visual lightness that contrasts wonderfully with the solidity of the material. It is a piece that cannot go unnoticed, destined to evoke emotion and admiration in anyone who beholds it.

Over the years, ArteCasa of Cantù has produced various versions of this “Console with Ramage”, using different wood types and altering the dimensions, making each piece unique and adaptable to different spaces and style preferences.
