A refined example of craftsmanship and decorative design, this splendid wrought iron two-seater sofa is an original creation by the famous Turin designer Pierluigi Colli, dating back to the 1930s. Made of hand-hammered iron, it stands out for its sinuous lines, the light elegance of the structure and the attention to detail, which clearly recall the French influence absorbed by Colli during his studies at the École des arts décoratifs in Paris.

The piece perfectly embodies the deco taste typical of the period, with stylized floral hints and an almost architectural grace that make it not only a functional piece of furniture, but also a truly decorative work. This sofa represents an important phase of Colli's production, in which its stylistic signature combines the Italian artisan tradition with the international trends of the time.

A rare and precious object, ideal for enriching classic or eclectic environments with a touch of authentic history of early twentieth century design. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
