AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Exclusive pouf / stool for seating or footrest with an eclectic and sophisticated character, entirely handmade, highlighting the famous “Gatti sui Libri” pattern by Piero Fornasetti.
The upholstery is the fruit of careful and skilled artisanal patchwork work, which skillfully composes and juxtaposes various cuttings and details of the iconic Fornasetti print. The composition emphasizes both the signature embossed on the backs of the historic volumes and the refined feline details in tones of gray, green, red, deep blue, and warm golden hues.
Each piece made with this technique is unique and combines the excellence of great Italian design of the 20th century with contemporary sartorial craftsmanship.
Structure: Circular padded seat supported by light-colored wooden legs; the padding has been completely redone
This is a one-of-a-kind piece: the patchwork arrangement makes this furnishing accessory an unrepeatable specimen.
Perfect for collectors, lovers of authorial vintage, and for those who want to add a touch of ironic and eclectic elegance to their environment (living room, study, bedroom, or entry hall).
The pouf has a diameter of 37 cm and is 36 cm tall.
This is not a Fornasetti product, nor a counterfeit or in the brand’s style; it is an artisanal creation made using original vintage fabric remnants.
