About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
The Sciangai coat rack, designed by Jonathan De Pas, Donato D'Urbino, and Paolo Lomazzi for Zanotta, is a definitive piece of 1980s Italian postmodern design. Its kinetic, folding structure transforms a simple utility object into a dynamic sculptural form, drawing inspiration from the traditional game of pick-up sticks.
Constructed from solid wood finished in a matte black tone, the rack consists of eight intersecting staves joined at the centre. This central pivot mechanism allows the piece to be expanded for use or collapsed into a compact bundle for storage. The top of each stave is shaped to securely hold garments, while the splayed base ensures stability. Produced in Italy, this piece exemplifies the era's approach to functional objects as expressive design statements.
The coat rack remains fully functional, with the folding mechanism operating smoothly. The original black finish is intact, showing character consistent with its age and use.
This piece serves as a striking functional sculpture in an entryway, bedroom, or office. Its architectural silhouette complements both minimalist contemporary spaces and eclectic postmodern interiors.
