ARTISAN Bicycle Anonymous Early '40s

DESCRIPTION

Dannata "Oxidized" on anonymous ARTISAN frame from the early 1940s. The feature that makes this Dannata unique among unique is the particularity of the frame, where the usual horizontal tube here splits, decreasing a lot in section diameter, becoming one with the upper part of the rear carriage, a continuous steering tube - rear dropouts of aesthetic elegance and structural lightness. Another unusual aspect among the Dannate is determined by the livery that would deserve the creation of a fourth typology, in fact the frame, stripped in its previous lives, has undergone a total oxidation process, very slow therefore superficial. This shade of color seems to marry perfectly with the aged color of the tires. The rear mudguard with the legendary final curfew band seems to perfectly mark the point of union between the oxidized and yellow tones of the elements.
