Unique Oversized Piece with Custom Black Legs, Designed for a Pistoia Photography Studio by Superstudio This one-of-a-kind "Quaderna" console/table, custom-made for Zanotta in the 1970s, stands as a testament to the radical design movement of the late 1960s. Crafted specifically for a photography studio in Pistoia, this unique piece diverges from the standard production line with its striking total black legs, adding a distinctive touch to its iconic grid-patterned design. The Quaderna collection emerged from the radical design movement in Florence, Italy, a movement intent on challenging and transcending the conventional boundaries of architecture and design. The radical designers sought to obliterate the traditional image of products, pushing the limits of creativity and functionality. This custom console/table is a prime example of that revolutionary spirit. Condition: - Legs: Total black, custom design differentiates it from standard production models. - Surface: The grid-patterned top shows some signs of use, as highlighted in the photos. - Left Leg: Visible bulging due to age and time, a testament to its vintage authenticity. Provenance: This piece was commissioned for a specific use within a photography studio in Pistoia. Alongside it, another bespoke creation, a counter photo, was also designed for the same studio, showcasing the unique, purpose-driven nature of these custom pieces. This exceptional "Quaderna" console/table is more than just a piece of furniture; it is a piece of design history. Its unique customizations and provenance make it a standout addition to any collection, embodying the daring and innovative spirit of the radical design era. Please refer to the detailed photos for a comprehensive view of its condition. This piece is ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of radical design, seeking to own a distinctive artifact from a transformative period in design history. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
