Low Cabinet by Françoise Sée, France, 1969.

A striking low cabinet clad in stainless steel, its façade articulated by a geometric relief of triangular panels.

The two side sections open to reveal storage compartments with shelves lined in brushed gold Formica, while the central section opens from the top onto a similarly finished interior, allowing it to be used as a bar.

The contrast between the sculptural stainless-steel exterior and the warm golden interior emphasizes the architectural character of the piece.

This particular version, of which no other identical example is currently known, may have been a unique piece.

“Sommerso” vase by Luciano Gaspari for Salviati, Murano, Italy, circa 1960–1965.

A striking example of the Sommerso technique, this blown Murano glass vase is defined by its elegant elongated silhouette and long cylindrical neck.

At its centre, a luminous amber core is surrounded by deep emerald green layers, the composition entirely encased within a thick mass of clear glass. The contrast between colour, transparency and form gives the piece a remarkable sculptural presence.

“Soleil à torsades” mirror by Line Vautrin (1913–1997), France, circa 1960.

One of Line Vautrin’s remarkable solar compositions, this convex mirror is surrounded by a rhythmic frame of twisted elements, extending into a radiating crown of slender Talosel points.

This example is distinguished by its particularly unusual palette. While comparable models generally feature mirrors in golden tones, here the mirrored elements display a deeper bronze hue, beautifully complemented by Talosel with warm, amber variations reminiscent of tortoiseshell.

The precision of the composition, the delicately scarified Talosel and the subtle play of reflections give the mirror a remarkable presence, changing continuously as it captures the surrounding light.

“Anatra” sculpture by Toni Zuccheri for Venini, Murano, Italy.

Designed in 1979, this striking male duck belongs to Toni Zuccheri’s celebrated exploration of the animal world for Venini, in which traditional Murano glassmaking techniques meet a remarkably expressive and sculptural approach.

The body is formed in black glass enriched with coloured glass rods, its elongated silhouette shaped by grinding. The eyes, composed of lattimo and black murrine, give the sculpture its distinctive character and remarkable presence.

Playful yet sophisticated, “Anatra” perfectly reflects Zuccheri’s ability to transform glass into a vivid and almost living presence.

Designed by Gianni Versace for Venini Murano, Frisage is part of the “Versace Venini Vasi” collection, conceived in 1996.

Beyond his renowned fashion creations, Versace also collaborated with prestigious furniture and accessory houses, bringing his distinctive visual language into the world of decorative arts.

“Le Monde est Plein de Fous” by Line Vautrin.

Created circa 1940, this remarkable gilt bronze bracelet is composed of fourteen engraved spheres suspended from a chain, interspersed with small masks representing human folly.

Each sphere bears a fragment of a maxim by Miguel Zamacoïs, gradually revealed as the bracelet moves:

“Le monde est plein de fous et qui n’en veut point voir doit se mettre un bandeau et casser son miroir.”

The world is full of fools, and whoever wishes not to see any should blindfold themselves and break their mirror.

With characteristic wit and irony, Line Vautrin transforms these words into a wearable work of art, suggesting that folly is not only to be found in others, but also in ourselves.

“Grenadine” Vase by Gianni Versace for Venini.

Beyond his renowned fashion creations, Gianni Versace also extended his distinctive creative vision to furniture and decorative arts, collaborating with prestigious houses including Rosenthal, Baccarat and Venini.

In 1996, Versace designed a collection of vases for Venini, each identified by a specific reference number. “Grenadine”, model 01026, is part of the Versace Venini Vasi collection and perfectly embodies his bold and iconic style, transposed into the exceptional medium of Murano glass.

“La Prière de Saint François d’Assise” by Line Vautrin, circa 1946.

A large gilt bronze box engraved with an extract from the Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi, also known as the Prayer for Peace.

The text, surrounded by a series of doves, evokes peace, love, forgiveness and reconciliation — transforming the surface of the box into a message as much as an ornament.

The interior is lined with cork.

Signed “LINE VAUTRIN”

A selection of three exceptional works by Seguso Vetri d’Arte, bringing together two generations of Murano design.

Two sculptural bottles designed by Flavio Poli, whose work for Seguso helped define the expressive language of post-war Italian glass, alongside a vase by Mario Pinzoni, who later continued the manufacture’s remarkable tradition of experimentation with form and colour.

Presented together, the three pieces reveal the distinctive character of Seguso Vetri d’Arte: bold silhouettes, sophisticated colour combinations and an exceptional mastery of blown glass.

“Vertèbre” Armchair by Pierre Vandel.
Pierre Vandel-Paris, France, 1972.

Designed in 1972 and produced in a limited edition of 600 examples, the “Vertèbre” armchair is one of Pierre Vandel’s most distinctive creations.

Its extraordinary construction is composed of a succession of individually upholstered elements, articulated along the seat and backrest like a spinal column — hence its evocative name, Vertèbre.

The original foam padding has been preserved and newly upholstered in brown Alcantara, carefully selected to recreate the appearance and texture of the original nubuck and suede. Each element is secured to a brushed aluminium framework, creating a striking contrast between the softness of the upholstery and the precise, industrial character of the metal.

With its dramatically articulated backrest, generous proportions and sculptural aluminium base, Vertèbre perfectly embodies the experimental spirit of French design in the early 1970s.

We look forward to welcoming you at PAD London, 13–18 October 2026.

Available.
