Description from the seller

Dressing table, also known as a toilet vanity.
The geometric lines, curved shapes and elegant brass details evoke Art Deco design, roughly from the 1930s or 1940s of the 20th century (20th century).
The combination of rigid, geometric shapes with the central curved semicircular section is typical of Italian cabinetry in the 1930s-1940s.
The use of profiles and round brass knobs paired with the contrast between dark wood and the lacquered/colored band in orange/terracotta is a hallmark of the modernist and Deco taste of the era.
The upper drop-down top, once raised, reveals a circular mirror and a practical semicircular storage compartment.
Equipped with doors decorated with distinctive ring knobs.
The piece is divided into 2 parts that can be joined by 2 large screws (included).
Overall dimensions: width 104 cm, depth 60 cm, height closed 76 cm, height raised 135 cm.
The side piece (right) measures 23 cm in width and 41 cm in depth, with a constant height of 76 cm.
