This rare ceramic stool or side table, named Louis XIV for obvious reasons, is clearly a statement piece, especially for those that believe passionate expressions of creativity and baroque go hand-in-hand with interior design. This table made of polychrome ceramic is decorated with embossed red lambrequins with golden festoons. The piece is typical of the design duo’s commitment to avant-garde, romantic style, and is highly decorative. Elizabeth Garouste & Mattia Bonetti were a team of designers, based in Paris, who brought extraordinarily imaginative designs into the mainstream. Their work, like this stoolq, reflects their idea that furniture design should have no rules in terms of form, and therefore it feels blissfully free while being functional inside contemporary spaces. The piece is signed BG and is in an amazing condition.
Elizabeth Garouste (born 1949) and Mattia Bonetti (born 1952) worked together in Paris from 1980-2002. Their Barbarian furniture of 1981 challenged modernist orthodoxy with rough materials and archaic forms, and in 1987 they designed the couture house of Christian Lacroix. Their pieces, shown at Galerie Néotu and later David Gill, mix bronze, wrought iron, wood, rope and colour. Collectors seek numbered editions and early one-off works.
