A modular “Gronda” mirror coat rack by Luciano Bertoncini for Elco with smoked and clear glass modules, Italy, 1970s
A modular “Gronda” mirror coat rack designed by Luciano Bertoncini for Elco in the 1970s. The composition includes ten panels in total, alternating between five clear mirrored glass panels and five smoked mirrored glass panels. Each vertical module conceals a pull-out hanger, allowing the system to function both as a mirror and as a discreet coat rack.
Luciano Bertoncini (born 1939) was an influential Italian designer whose work bridged minimalism and industrial innovation. The “Gronda,” created in collaboration with Joe Colombo, epitomises the sleek, modular aesthetic of Italian design during the 1970s. Its combination of functionality and visual rhythm transforms a practical object into a refined architectural element.
Condition: overall very good vintage condition. Five of the mirrors are smoked glass, five are clear glass, the “smudges” visible in the photographs are due to the studio lights picking up any smearing effect but they clean up perfectly. Mechanism on all works well, no damage to the mirrors. No bracket for mounting onto a wall. Please refer to photographs
Dimensions: 19.5cm wide, 200cm high, 6cm deep (each)
