Tonelli - Tonelli penrose longho palermoPenrose console transparent glass

Penrose, made by Isao Hosoe with Lucia Fontana and Masaya Hashimoto, seems to stand on only one point. Through the gluing of glass sheets, finely finished in the oblique cut of each edge, a magic is created: the glass becomes light and bends on itself remaining in perfect balance. Penrose is the aesthetic and functional metaphor of man’s challenge to overcome nature and its balances through the use of glass. Structure in transparent or extra clear glass with asymmetric shape with oblique welding on the side.

Tonelli

Founded in the 1980s out of a deep passion for research and experimentation, Tonelli is a reference in the world of design. The company specializes in the production of glass furniture and accessories. The philosophy is based on the combination of tradition and innovation, indispensable elements that, combined with a passion for the material, help promote the culture of glass. Traditionally, resistant, ecological and fascinating, glass is the element that has belonged to human history for more than five thousand years. Tonelli has inherited this timeless knowledge, reinterpreted it in a modern key and contributed to make it the protagonist of today's furniture. The company has, indeed, drawn from the ancient Italian glassmaking tradition, an artistic-cultural heritage of inestimable value that Tonelli still preserves and protects today, entrusting the complex processing of glass to the hands of expert craftsmen. Tonelli is distinguished by its natural ability to innovate itself and innovate, driven by a constant evolutionary tension, It also experiments with new forms of creativity, investigating new ways of living and always and constantly directing significant investments in Research & Development.
Thanks to the company, the furniture industry has been revolutionized  by introducing a new welding technique for flat crystal sheets in the 1980s. Indeed, they use a structural adhesive that allows the welded parts to retain transparency and increase the strength of the joint itself.
Over the years, the process has become increasingly refined, reaching very high quality standards. This has not stopped the evolution of the brand, which today is no longer just a manufacturer of furniture accessories but offers cutting-edge solutions to furnish any type of environment.
