Sara Pearce has been working with and representing Emanuele Pantanella for the last 20 years. Emanuele Pantanella’s designs are modern day objets de vertus; extreme luxury combined with pared down simplicity inspired by Pantanella’s Mediterranean heritage. Living and working in Rome Pantanella uses natural materials that have delighted his compatriots for centuries: wood, marbles, precious and semi-precious stones.
Emanuele has exhibited widely and his work is to be found in discerning private collections and museums worldwide including the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Musée de la Mode et du Textile, the Union Centrale des Arts Decoratifs, and the Musée de la Seita (Musée du Tabac) Paris, Det Danske Kunstindustrimuseum, Copenhagen, Museo Nacional de Artes Decoratives, Madrid, Museum of Fine Art, Houston and the Museum Für Angewandte Kunst, Cologne.
In April 2013 Emanuele Pantanella Lux launched the first collection of Pantanella’s lamps which were originally designed in the early 70s and which had never been put into production before.
