Product Details

Product Description

In 1939, Charlotte Perriand designed a storage unit that was relaunched in 2014 by Cassina in Italy. Known as Riflesso, it was a multifunctional piece with wooden shelves that featured rounded edges and strong Japanese influences, which were common in Perriand's work. The piece was characterized by the expressiveness of the material, creating eye-catching shapes of great elegance. Originally, the piece was only available in black and in one size with two heights. However, the new version is larger and available in mahogany with sliding doors of natural or black anodized aluminum. Some of the images shown of the product display other colors and variations, but the item for sale is the one in the first image. Actual colors may vary due to computer monitor settings and different capabilities of displaying colors. Charlotte Perriand, born in Paris in 1903, was a designer of furniture made of anodized aluminum and chromium-plated steel, showing it at the 1927 "Salon d'Automne" in Paris. After meeting Le Corbusier, Perriand worked with him and Pierre Jeanneret until 1937. Cassina, the manufacturer of Riflesso, has created the I Maestri collection, revisiting furnishing designs by the 20th century's best-known architects, including Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Gerrit Thomas Rietveld, Franco Albini, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Marco Zanuso. Cassina continues to strive for design excellence with an open and holistic approach, furnishing homes with iconic pieces that create authentic and welcoming atmospheres.
