MAURIZIO TEMPESTINI (1908 – 1960) was an Italian architect and furniture designer who was most notably known for his sculptural Clamshell line and other elegant mid-century modern furnishings for patios and gardens.
His name became widely known in the United States after being introduced to the American public in 1951 through Gimbels Department Store and Suniland Furniture in Houston, Texas. Today his bold and stylish patio furniture remains sought after by collectors everywhere.
