Wood wall shelf from Italy in vintage style, dating to 1970–1980, in good used condition with minor signs of aging, dimensions 95 cm wide, 12 cm deep, 45 cm high.
Description from the seller
Elegant wall-mounted wooden shelf, crafted in a traditional-inspired classic style. The piece stands out for its refined architectural structure, composed of shaped shelves and turned columns, enhanced by decorative pointed finials that recall ornamental motifs typical of classical furnishings.
The composition, harmonious and well-proportioned, suggests a production traceable to the mid-20th century, inspired by European historic styles. The soft lines of the shelves, combined with the workmanship of the small columns, endow the piece with elegance and visual lightness while maintaining a striking stage presence.
Made of wood with a dark finish, the shelf has a warm, natural patina that enhances the grain of the material. The normal signs of wear and use are consistent with the object's age and attest to its authenticity and charm, without compromising its stability or functionality.
Originally conceived as a decorative and functional element, this type of shelf was intended for displaying small objects of art, porcelain, photographs, books, or collections. Even today it represents a highly versatile solution, ideal for:
• living rooms and lounges
• entrances and corridors
• studies or libraries
• classic, vintage, or eclectic environments
Thanks to its elegant, timeless design, the piece fits easily into both traditional interiors and contemporary settings, where it can become an interesting decorative element of contrast.
