Mid-Century Table in Rosewood and Chromed Steel attributed to Gianni Moscatelli for Formanova, 1965

Dining table designed by Gianni Moscatelli for Formanova, Italy, circa 1965.

A refined example of 1960s Italian industrial and modernist design, this table combines a warm rosewood veneer top with a clean, architectural chromed steel base. The contrast between natural wood and industrial metal defines the aesthetic language of Formanova during this period.

Founded in 1959, Formanova played a significant role in the development of Italian modern furniture in the Brianza region, under the direction of Gianni Moscatelli. The company became known for its rational approach to design, combining functional clarity with high-quality materials and precise construction.

The structure of the table is designed to ensure both stability and visual lightness, making it suitable for dining environments as well as professional or executive settings.

Its generous proportions allow comfortable seating for multiple users, reinforcing its dual function as both dining and conference table.

The piece remains in very good vintage condition, showing light wear consistent with age and use. The original chrome structure retains its clean industrial character.

A strong and versatile example of mid-century Italian design, ideal for curated interiors seeking understated elegance and architectural presence.
