Mario Marenco Sapporo Dining table for Mobil Girgi Italy 1970s

Nice Sapporo dining table in Walnut wood by the Italian designer and actor Mario Marenco (1933-2019), featuring a high-level of craftsmanship in woodwork.

A solid walnut construction featuring a beautiful grain, with beveled edges which add to the refinement and elegance of the design. The tilted legs are not directly connected to the table, but secured to a bar, which supports the top, giving the table top a floating appearance. This statement piece will bring character in any room!

Mario Marenco was born in 1933. He studied archi­tec­ture in Naples and won research grants for Stock­holm and Chicago. In 1960 he opened in Rome his own atelier of archi­tec­ture and design named Studio DEGW in Rome. During his career as an archi­tect, he taught at the Univer­sity of Sydney and worked with compa­nies such as B&B, Arflex and Poltrana Frau. Mario Marenco is also known for his appear­ances on TV but his career as an actor and humorist has never over­shad­owed his predis­po­si­tion for design.
