Product description
Pair of "Eros" side tables, designed by Angelo Mangiarotti and manufactured by Skipper in 1972.
Made of white Carrara marble. Excellent vintage condition.
The Eros series by Angelo Mangiarotti is a collection of tables presented in 1971.
The main characteristic of the series is the marble leg of conical shape that fits into the conical holes of the marble top. The weight and rigidity of the marble give stability to the structure. The collection includes twenty different types of tables, available in four different types of marble: Black Marquina, Mondragone, White Carrara and Arabescato.
One of the great names of 20th century Italian design, a committed, cultured and brilliant designer, able to embrace the ideals of the modern movement and to surpass them with his experimental and highly original designs, Angelo Mangiarotti has succeeded in applying his unique talent to projects of various scales, from architecture to design.
A proponent of rigorous functionalism, he has never neglected the search for elegance and beauty in his work. He has moved beyond conventional boundaries and into sculpture with his skillful reflections on plasticity and form, always using contemporary materials and production processes. His approach, and the principles behind it, have always been the result of a deep awareness of the importance of values with an ethical dimension. Angelo Mangiarotti has created his own "happiness" through the "rightness" of his practice, skilfully managing to reconcile the inevitable dualism between ethics and aesthetics.
