Description
Overview
Colombo and 1953 are two consoles by Lorenzo Bini for Tacchini, listed together as Colombo & 1953. Each takes lines traced by Jean Arp and Gianni Colombo and gives them a new expression in an irregularly shaped slab of marble.
Construction
The top, and the base and legs, are in marble with the same finish: brushed matt Fior di Pesco.
Specifications
The two consoles carry the codes 0CLMCN144 and 01953CN118, and both are finished in the same brushed matt marble.
Story
Lines from Arp and Colombo
Lorenzo Bini's Colombo and 1953 consoles start from lines traced by Jean Arp and Gianni Colombo. Each console gives those lines a new expression in a marble slab of irregular shape.
One marble for top and base
A single finish is listed for the consoles. The top, the base and the legs are all brushed matt Fior di Pesco marble, so the same stone runs through each console.
