Oggetti Joins the Trade Source Furniture Collection

Based in Miami, Florida, Oggetti curates a host of worldly designer furniture collections available here at Trade Source including Filipino Designer Vito Selma, and the Polish Glass Artist Borowski, as well as complete Oggetti furniture and Lighting collections.

Oggetti pieces are at once statement pieces and subtle additions to your interior.  Hidden connections, natural lines, and organic forms are at the center of the collection.  These pieces are as functional as furniture as they are beautiful to look at when not being interacted with.

Prominently featured in the Oggetti collection are the designs of Vito Selma. Though specific stimuli may shift from time to time, the Vito Selma brand is quite adamant on its focus on the natural. An examination of numerous inspirations reveal a love affair with shapes and textures that are often repeated in the earth, the sky and the sea. It is this love for nature that has driven the brand to constantly look for design components that satisfy its inclinations, while relying on wood as a primary medium. Considered as an enduring partner despite the brand’s continuous evolution, wood and its many variations and reiterations, provides avenues for Vito Selma to experiment, create and explore. This exploration has allowed the brand not only to push the limits of the material, but also to examine the results of its marriage with other organic elements.

The resulting collections are those that may be quickly defined as having a Japanese or even Scandinavian influence. However, instead of being likened to a particular design aesthetic, the core of Vito Selma lies more on keen attention to detail and excellent craftsmanship. It is through these attributes that the Vito Selma brand identifies itself as not being Japanese nor Scandinavian, but distinctly Filipino.

The whimsical glass artist Stanislaw Borowski is represented in the US exclusively by Oggetti with the entire collection available here at Trade Source. One of the big names in the European studio-glass movement of the late 1970s, Borowski achieved a previously unseen quality in his engraved and sculptural works. Compellingly presented in numerous exhibitions, they have reached a wide audience in Europe, Asia, and the USA. His glass blown art techniques have been passed to his sons who are now creating in the Borowski Studio.  One of our favorites is the Tawny Owl.
