GESSI316

AN ICON CLAD IN WOVEN METAL

INSPIRATION STORY

The Gessi316 collection is characterised by 'woven metal', which later became the company's stylistic signature. The refined decorations Trame, Intreccio, Meccanica, and Cesello impressed on steel, a noble and precious material, acquire additional value on technical products such as bathroom mixers. The three-dimensionality and material and tactile properties of the processes encourage exploration of the sensory side. An experience capable of generating well-being and emotions, enhanced by the inimitable textures that adorn the metal with new gleams.

INTRECCIO WITH RHOMBUSES REMINISCENT OF ITALIAN ARTISANAL WORKMANSHIP

The homage to the world of fashion is celebrated with Intreccio, i.e. knit, whose diamond texture recalls the finest craftsmanship. On one side, the realisation of soft woven leather that characterises the creations of the most prestigious Italian leather goods brands. On the other, the diamonds of English knitwear and quilted fabrics. A reassuring and refined design with undeniable taste. The geometric shapes accommodate timeless atmospheres that transcend genres and passing trends. The type of decoration leaves room only for the precision of the artifact, the result of the experience of GESSI master craftsmen in metalworking.

TRAME WITH THE EXTRAORDINARY SPIRAL MOTIF

Trame, i.e. the weft, pays homage to the territory where GESSI was born, the cradle of textiles and the fashion system. The decoration of each element recalls the weave, namely the set of threads arranged horizontally on the loom, from one end to the other, which contribute to forming a fabric. The parallel with the fashion world implies a desire to explore unusual areas in a mostly technical and functional world, bringing eclecticism and style into interiors. Irregular lines, carved where the hand rests, evoke an intense tactile perception. They are evidence of the skill with which artifacts are made that explore all the different expressions of metal.

CESELLO IS SYNONYMOUS WITH HIGH JEWELLERY

Cesello, i.e. the chisel, best expresses the concept of Made in Gessi, synonymous with high jewellery and craftsmanship in the world of interior design. The texture is inspired by the goldsmith's art of chasing, a precious metalworking technique that evokes beauty and perfection. The finely sculpted decoration on the metal discreetly adorns all the different elements of the collection, reaching the maximum expression of richness. Careful handcrafting emphasises how attentively every detail is finished and accentuates the aesthetic and material quality. The environments thus acquire a special allure of refined splendour.

MECCANICA WITH AN INDUSTRIAL-CHIC FLAVOR

The Meccanica Texture adds a touch of industrial-chic to the purity of metal, with a more pronounced texture that gives strength and elegance, inspired by the powerful grace of gears. This style reflects a sophisticated pursuit of hi-tech design, imparting distinctive and contemporary elegance, creating pieces with a special flavour, perfect for those who love essentiality but want to give room to a refined, high-tech yet warm and decorative touch, through the evocation of classic mechanical industry craftsmanship within the most intimate spaces of living.
