Combining elegant Italian modernist design with ingenious functionality, this striking ensemble is a fine example of Savini's ability to merge sculptural form with practical innovation.

The desk features a luxurious black leather writing surface framed by a sleek lacquered structure. At each end, discreet drop-leaf extensions fold down when not in use, maintaining the desk's clean, streamlined silhouette. When additional workspace is required, the leaves are effortlessly raised and supported by an ingenious mechanism in which a section of the desk's frame swings outward to become the structural support for the extended surface. This clever engineering is as visually satisfying as it is practical.

Further enhancing its functionality, the desk is fitted with three deep drawers, providing generous storage for documents and office essentials. The drawers retain their complete set of five matching original keys, a rare and desirable feature that underscores the desk's exceptional level of preservation.

The accompanying Pamplona chair, also designed by Augusto Savini for Pozzi, perfectly complements the desk with its bold architectural lines, curved backrest, and comfortable upholstered seat. Together, they create a cohesive and sophisticated workspace that is both timeless and unmistakably Italian.

Both the desk and chair are presented in very good condition, with only light signs of age and use consistent with careful ownership.

Highly sought after and seldom available as a complete set, this is a remarkable opportunity to acquire an iconic and exceptionally rare piece of Italian design history. This piece has an attribution mark,
