Leitner - Ettore Sottsass, Marco Zanini - Cabinet (1) - Donau - Burrwood, Maple
In 1986, Ettore Sottsass & Marco Zanini were invited by Austrian furniture producer Franz Leitner, to design an entire collection. The result was the famous ‘Donau’ (Danube) collection, composed of different furniture pieces, all produced in a large variety of varying burl woods and birds-eye maple veneer mixed with extremely colourful lacquered wood elements.
Many of these pieces are also integrated into the über-stunning decor of Villa Dorane, the lavish property in southern France decorated in the mid-nineties by Ettore Sottsass for Jean Pigozzi.
This cabinet is made of burl wood, with Birdseye maple veneer and lacquered in turquoise.
It was acquired directly from the family members of Franz Leitner, who have been since the 80s in their family properties.
