This bookcase has famous origins as it comes from the project designed by the artist Michele Manzini: “L’Errore e il Disincanto”, exhibited at the Biennale in Venice in 2013. The installation consisted of 4 chairs of ""substantial"" dimensions exhibited at the ""Personal Structures"" section at the prestigious Palazzo Bembo in Venice. The Morelato Company, supporter and producer of the installation, decided to include a more functional version of the model while maintaining the original style and design research with which it was conceived. L’Errante is a bookcase that will turn heads, a piece of art furniture entirely made of ash wood with glass shelves with a unique design.
Bookcase in a chair shape made of ash wood with 5 glass shelves. Piece exhibited at Palazzo Bembo at the 55th Biennale Art Exhibition in Venice - 2013 edition.
