DRINKS TROLLEY DESIGNED BY LUIGI MASSONI FOR GUZZINI
Designed and produced in the 1970s, the Luigi Massoni Drinks Trolley has become a collectible piece of 1970s ‘Space Age’ Italian design. Produced in Polycarbonate by Guzzini, the Drinks Trolley came in a range of colours, the most coveted being the translucent amber.
Featuring two removable trays and chrome details, the drinks trolley is a practical and stylist option as a bar display or convenient side table.
This particular example is an original 1970s version in outstanding condition. Whilst it has very light patina from its age, it is barely visible and presents beautifully.
One of our favourite Guzzini creations, particularly in this hard to come by translucent amber.
Made in Italy.
Available to view at our Alexandria Studio with interstate shipping available.
Dimensions: 630mm H x 700mm W

ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Luigi Massoni (1930-2013) was a distinguished Italian industrial designer and architect, known for his influential role in the mid-20th century Italian design movement. Born in Milan, he received his education at the Collettivo di Architettura, where he developed a strong foundation in architecture and design. Massoni began his career in the 1950s, working across various disciplines including architecture, design, and publishing, which helped establish him as a key figure in the post-war Italian design landscape.
Throughout his career, Massoni made significant contributions to several renowned brands. He worked with Alessi, where he co-designed the iconic stainless-steel cocktail shaker 870, marking a pivotal moment for the company as it began to embrace external design influences. Additionally, his role at Boffi Cucine saw him introduce innovative modular kitchen systems that transformed kitchen design. His collaborations with Guzzini also resulted in stylish lamps and serveware, further solidifying his reputation as a versatile designer.
Massoni's impact extended beyond design; he co-founded influential design magazines such as Il Mobile Italiano and Mobilia, which promoted Italian furniture makers and innovations. His work earned him numerous accolades and allowed him to influence future generations of designers. Celebrated for blending modern aesthetics with traditional craftsmanship, Massoni's legacy remains significant in the history of Italian industrial design, reflecting his deep understanding of form and usability.
