With the introduction of Salone Raritas, contemporary craft, special-edition design and antiques enter Salone del Mobile not as peripheral categories, but as central pillars within a wider ecosystem. As architects, interior designers, developers and hospitality brands increasingly look to rare and characterful pieces to give distinction to residential, retail and public interiors, how are these disciplines being positioned within a fair historically defined by industrial production? What does it mean to present unique and limited-edition works at a trade event, and what new opportunities does this create for designers and gallerists working across collectible design, high craftsmanship and antiques? Featuring exhibitors this panel will explore the growing appeal of authorial objects among professional audiences, and consider how Salone Raritas aligns with Salone del Mobile’s wider role as an international platform for design culture and business.
