In the early 1970s, Willy Rizzo developed for Cidue a series of coffee tables that integrate discreet functions, designed for modern interiors and changing uses. The "Bar" model, published by Cidue, has a chrome-plated metal structure with a mirrored smoked glass top. The sliding system reveals a central compartment lined with mirrors, designed to house glassware or objects. The whole is in very good original condition with some signs of the passage of time visible in the chrome plating. It shows the beginning of patina on the mercury mirrors, light and homogeneous. It has very fine and superficial scratches on the envelopes, consistent with age.
Designer and photographer, Willy Rizzo began his career in Paris and since then has built a solid career in the world of photography. His activity as a designer began in 1966, when he moved with his wife to a small apartment in the center of Rome, which he renovated himself, also designing the furniture. Although his intention was never to become a designer, his friends soon began to commission him after seeing his house. In fact, he has counted among his clients such prominent figures as Salvador Dalí and Brigitte Bardot.
