Design studio Duecitti showed a collection of vases which combined Lavagna stone with brass details, giving a sophisticated edge to the natural material

Brussels gallery Maniera’s booth presented pink, green and baby blue chipwood furniture by Architecten de Vylder Vinck Taillieu, a rug by Christoph Hefti and a daybed by Juliaan Lampens, amongst other pieces by international architects

The scenographic work of Sara Ricciardi featured minimal design interventions to create splendid visual performances with natural elements. The ’Perimetri Botanici’ collection of vases include marble and metal pieces that enhance the poetic shapes of flowers and plants

Hailing from the Italian town of Arezzo, Nero Design Gallery started as a dealer of mid-century furniture, and later worked with contemporary designers on new commissions. Among their offerings at Operae were small tables and vases by Duccio Maria Gambi, featuring rough stone in contrast with graphic patterns and bold colours, geometric tapestries by Alizarina Silva, and floor lamps by Salotto Dinamico

Also part of Piemonte Handmade, this project by Guglielmo Poletti. The Dutch Design Academy alumnus worked closely with metalsmith Livio Berrone (a long-term collaborator of artists such as Giuseppe Penone and Lara Favaretto) and London gallery SEE•DS to create the two benches with a starting point as an exploration on a tube shape

Among offerings from younger designers was the work of Francesco Fusillo, who showed a collection of small tables as well as other furniture and objects from his portfolio
