The interplay of light and shadow created by the upright wires and circular structural elements adds an industrial touch to your interiors, enhanced by the raw, handcrafted nature of the piece. In creating the Serax Turn Basket - Round, designer Antonino Sciortino has created a landscape of meaning, created by combining multiple pieces from the collection, using the differences in dimensions to create intricate shapes and patterns.
Antonino Sciortino was born in Palermo in 1962. At the age of eight, in his father’s shop, he began to forge some small 'soft' iron pieces normally used for binding big iron bars. His passion for dance lead him to Rome where he started his carrier also as a choreographer. During his spare time he kept on designing iron works and now, this is his main activity. Even though he gave up dancing, he is able to express the lightness of dance in his iron works, creating sculptures mixing experiences and emotions. Nowadays he lives and works in Milan.
