Salvino Marsura La Notte console

La Notte console brings together light and furniture in a single, sculptural form. The sinuous iron structure rises from a rounded base, finished in a celestial shade of blue, and supports a small surface alongside an integrated lamp, reminiscent of a lily. The asymmetrical, winding nature of the composition lends the piece a surreal feel.

The piece is in good condition, with patination and surface wear consistent with age. To be rewired and PAT tested to UK standards.

Salvino Marsura (1938–2020) was an artisan metalworker. After learning his craft in the dynamic workshop of sculptor and ‘iron poet’ Toni Benetton, he spent more than 60 years producing sculpture, furniture, objects and memorials in his hometown of Treviso, Italy.

Marsura’s ironwork art and furniture relishes in the manual aesthetic of the forge, giving voice to the raw metal and the processes of its manipulation including sweltering heat, hammering, bending and welding. His distinctive hand marries elements of brutalism and traditional decorative arts.
