This sophisticated set of two vintage easels represents a quintessential collaboration between the visionary Italian architect Gae Aulenti and the renowned manufacturer Zanotta during the 1970s. Characterized by a minimalist yet industrial aesthetic, each easel features a sleek, angular frame finished in a deep black lacquer that highlights the geometric precision of the design. The structural integrity is paired with Aulenti's signature playfulness, seen in the vibrant red mechanical joints and textured grey rubber grips at the apex. These functional details allow the easels to be adjusted or folded with ease while providing a striking color contrast that embodies the bold spirit of late 20th-century Italian modernism. Whether used to display large-scale canvases or as standalone sculptural objects, these pieces serve as a testament to the era's ability to elevate utilitarian workshop equipment into high-end gallery furniture. Their sturdy silhouette and preserved original hardware make them a rare find for collectors of iconic European design, seamlessly blending architectural rigor with a pop-art sensibility. We have the rectangular glass top, it'snt on the list because shipping is more expensive to make it.
