ORDITA - FILIGRANA
Stainless steel wall decor item
ORDITA - FILIGRANA is a stainless steel wall decor item. Formal rigour and expressive graphic style intertwine in Filigrana, an elegantly designed work of art composed of hexagonal copper pieces in the DeBatì finish, overlapped by diamond grid. The diamond-shaped elements are enriched with alternated contrast tinning which illuminates the piece, amplified by the subsequent flaming of the surface. The sum of the hand-crafted processes and alternated oxidations gives rise to a dynamic and three-dimensional composition in which light and texture are juxtaposed. Filigrana comes in the DeBatì finish, which evolved within the Ordita research. Designed by textile artist Evelina Antuono and developed by De Castelli, the lightness of fabric meets the expressive strength of metal.
For Salone del Mobile 2025, De Castelli presents ORDITA, a collection of metal surfaces which transform the act of hand weaving into a new textural expression. Working with textile designer Evelina Antuono, this project unites the solidity of metal and the lightness of fabric. Through innovation and research, the three-dimensional weaves of the six new surfaces in the collection turn metal finishes into a visual and tactile story, an ode to textile traditions and the artisan savoir-faire of San Leucio, the renowned 18th-century manufacturing town near Naples and its ability to unite art and industry. Thanks to the synergy between technology and craftsmanship, De Castelli advances an experimental process in which metal becomes malleable and almost organic. Oxidation, hammering and satin finishes create dynamic surfaces in which reflections and textures evolve into a multi-sensory experience. Salone del Mobile 2025 offers the opportunity to discover this innovative collection in the De Castelli showroom, where the Ordita finishes will cover special works designed for the spaces in Via Visconti di Modrone. Ordita is an invitation to explore new design perspectives, ones in which research and innovation intertwine to redefine the aesthetic of metal. De Castelli once again confirms its dedication to material research, inventing new expressive possibilities for the future of Italian and international design.
Ordita comes in six new surfaces:
DeChiné, DeBatì, DeTubé, DeSequì, DePiqué and DeCramé.
