AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sewing cabinet in solid walnut native to Italy.
Support frame in polished steel
Italian manufacture, early 1960s.
Characterized by a morphology referred to as an "accordion" and crafted in fine solid walnut.
There are five usable compartments.
Lower or base compartment with greater capacity and four upper compartments, two per side with smaller capacity.
All of it is anchored to a glossy painted steel support, which enhances its Modernist line, very innovative for the era, making it particularly sophisticated and versatile.
Part of the furnishings in a noble residence, the item in question has remained in excellent condition over time, as it was placed in guest rooms.
Rarely used, it shows no significant missing parts or defects; it is original in every element and, considering the years since its manufacture, the condition is excellent and like new.
Periodically, it has undergone beeswax treatment to nourish the wood.
The functional design, typical of Mid Century Modern style, makes it an elegant and practical container.
Refined, sought-after, elaborate and articulated, today it can be used to embellish any type of environment.
