## About Ico Parisi

Ico Parisi (1916–1996), born Domenico Parisi, was an Italian architect, designer, and artist born in Palermo. Authority records establish his Italian identity and architectural practice, while reference sources associate him particularly with furniture design. A German-language biographical source places him among the notable figures shaping Italian furniture design during the 1950s, although the collected source pack does not provide a museum-level movement classification. An IdRef bibliographic record also documents glass and ceramic work associated jointly with Ico and Luisa Parisi. Collectors may therefore encounter the Parisi name on furniture and decorative objects as well as in broader fine-art and design catalogues. Because collaborative authorship, manufacturers, materials, and production dates are not detailed in the present identity sources, individual objects should be researched from their labels, inscriptions, documentation, and physical construction rather than attributed from style or name alone.

## Common works and media

The collected sources most clearly associate Parisi with furniture, while an authority-linked bibliographic record documents glass and ceramics in connection with Ico and Luisa Parisi. Appraisily's matched auction data also places records in broad categories covering decorative art and editions, paintings, works on paper and prints, and sculpture or mixed media. These automated categories should be checked against each object's actual materials, function, maker, date, and attribution before appraisal.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily's public artist index reports matched auction records spanning 2001–2026, with both priced and unpriced entries across several broad categories. Those records are most useful when comparables match the object type, medium, dimensions, date, condition, attribution, and provenance of the work being appraised. For furniture and decorative objects, maker or manufacturer documentation, materials, construction, restoration, and any collaborative attribution may also require object-level verification. Signatures, inscriptions, edition information, exhibition history, and catalogue references can strengthen identification. Public results should not be treated as a price prediction: private transactions, incomplete feeds, differing fee treatment, condition changes, and revised attributions can all limit direct comparison.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Object-level attribution, condition, provenance, and reporting conventions still require independent review.
