ABOUT PRODUCTID 31896
The 'Boby' trolley, designed by Joe Colombo and produced by Bieffeplast Padova, is an icon of 1970s Italian design. Crafted from glossy black ABS plastic, it features a striking, geometric structure softened by rounded corners. The modular construction includes multiple compartments, sliding trays, and open storage spaces, making organization intuitive and versatile. Four black caster wheels provide full mobility, while the entire piece is finished in a deep, uniform black without any additional accent colors. The surface is smooth and high-gloss, showing typical signs of use from the 1970s—such as scratches, scuffs, and a crack on the bottom shelf—which do not affect functionality. All components are original, and the condition is described as good, with natural traces of use. This modular order and glossy finish evoke the spirit of an era in which the future was meant to be both practical and bold. 'Boby' tells the story of Italian modernism—Colombo designed not just a piece of furniture, but a manifesto for everyday mobility. The depth of black and fluidity of lines reflect the optimism of the seventies, where every detail was created for user comfort and to spark the imagination. Even visible signs of wear become part of the narrative—a testament to the ongoing relationship with time that never stands still. The 'Boby' trolley can be paired with a minimalist desk or a contemporary sofa, where its geometric form will emphasize an organized interior. It works perfectly as a mobile assistant in a home office, artist’s studio, or living room—surrounded by glass, metal, and monochromatic textiles. It is best combined with other furniture featuring clean, modernist lines or bold Space Age accents, to highlight its timeless, futuristic character. The listed price is for one piece.
