Description from the seller
Low Sideboard – Walnut Burl Finish – Italy, 1930s/1940s
Fascinating low sideboard (buffet) in Art Deco style, dating from the first half of the 20th century.
The piece features a sturdy architectural framework, recently revisited with an artisanal matte coral-orange lacquer, creating a bold contrast with the original flame-figured walnut burl veneer of the central body. A piece of eclectic design, ideal for insertion in modern, vintage, or industrial settings.
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND DESIGN:
Configuration: The piece offers a triple division of space. On the sides it features two large open compartments (without doors), ideal as a bookshelf or for displaying art objects. The central section consists of two adjacent drawers at the top and a double-door compartment at the bottom, equipped with an internal shelf.
Finishes: The exterior of the structure has been hand-finished in coral tone. The fronts of the drawers and central doors retain the splendid original walnut burl veneer, with symmetrical grain mirrored to enhance the natural pattern of the wood.
Hardware: Original period handles on the drawers and the central door, made of Bakelite or contemporary plastic in amber/honey color with brass-plated metal supports. Central lock escutcheon in brass.
CONDITION AND DETAILED EXAMINATION (Condition Report):
The piece is structurally solid but presents the condition visible in the photos, with evident and widespread signs of time, use, and the natural movement of the underlying solid wood. It is sold as a piece for conservative restoration or to be inserted as-is for lovers of the “shabby/industrial lived-in” style.
