About the Item

This stunning pine wood photo frame, designed by renowned Italian designer Federico Simone for Artek, captures the essence of Mid-Century Modern craftsmanship. The rare piece was crafted circa 1970. Simone, known for his organic and practical designs, has expertly combined form and function in this stunning photo frame. Crafted from warm, rich varnish pine wood, the frame has a natural appeal that complements a wide range of decor designs. The geometric shape features a cubic design, with the photo view deeply inset inside the wood. The wood grain is accentuated, highlighting Artek's artisanal expertise and the high-quality material used. Its simple lines and unassuming style make it a versatile addition to your home or office. The photo frame still has the original Artek sticker logo on the side, along with the designer logo on the front. Dimensions: Overall: 7.69 in wide (19.5 cm) by 7.88 in high (20 cm) by 2.75 in deep (7 cm). Opening (picture size): 5.32 in diameter (7.5 cm). Reference: Federico Simone – Italian Designer of the Mid-Century Era Federico Simone is a distinguished Italian designer recognized for his influential collaborations with leading Italian furniture and decorative arts editors during the 1960s and 1970s. His work reflects the refined sensibilities of mid-century Italian design, blending artisanal craftsmanship with modernist aesthetics. Simone partnered with Artek to produce innovative wood creations that emphasized clean lines and sculptural form. He also collaborated with Ceramica Casarte, contributing to their celebrated collections of ceramic and earthenware objects—many of which are now considered collectible for their distinctive textures and bold, expressive glazes. His multidisciplinary approach and partnerships with renowned manufacturers positioned him as a key figure in Italy's postwar design renaissance, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire collectors and design enthusiasts today.
