Born in naples in 1929, italian architect-designer cesare lacca created modernist furniture and metalwork throughout the 1950s. Though details of his personal life and professional training remain lost to history, there are sufficient surviving primary sources that document his many elegant designs in brasswork for which he is the best know and which fetch high prices from collectors. Almost all of lacca’s known designs were created in the 1950s, and unfortunately we do not know how his career developed from the 1960s. Today, cesare lacca is appreciated for his contribution to the italian design identity; his ability to fashion brass into the italian postwar design conversation; and his timeless, highly sought-after serving trolleys. Dimensions: height: (65 cm) length: 82cm.
