Description from the seller
Mid-Century Cabinet / Etagere
– Italy, 1950s-1960s
– Veneered wood
– Modern design antiques
Elegant and authentic Italian sideboard/etagere from the 1950s/1960s, a perfect example of Mid-Century design of Italian manufacture, a period when functionality and aesthetic taste converged in sober yet extremely refined furniture.
The piece features a lean, well-proportioned profile, supported by conical feet and characterized by a two-level structure: the lower part with a compartment closed by sliding doors, the upper part with a raised shelf supported by turned columns. A typical arrangement of mid-century modern furnishings of the era, designed to offer ample storage without visually weighing down the space.
The warm, wood-look finish with a clearly defined grain is framed by dark profiles that emphasize the furniture's geometry, making it ideal for both authentic vintage interiors and contemporary homes where you want to add an accent piece with Italian character.
Thanks to its compact size and modular structure, it is extremely versatile and can be used as:
• mobile bar
• a piece of furniture for holding books or vinyl records
• entryway sideboard
• living room cabinet for decorative objects
• small studio bookshelf/etagere
Italy, 1950s–1960s
Wood / veneer with contrasting edge banding
Intact item, in good overall condition, with normal signs of wear consistent with its age, with no structural damage.
Measures
• Height: 84 cm
Width: 65 cm
Depth: 32 cm
Shipping
The furniture will be shipped disassembled in order to avoid damage during shipping.
Proper packaging and trackable shipping throughout Europe.
