Description from the seller
Up for auction, an icon of Italian design from the 1960s: an elegant etagere/display cabinet attributed to the style and signature of Romeo Rega. Made with a refined combination of crystal and chromed metal, this precious work of art is an authentic expression of the era's style and elegance.
Its condition retains a light patina that testifies to its history, while some marks on the chrome and brass, consistent with the passage of time, underscore its authenticity. Deliberately left unrestored and not polished, this etagere exudes a unique charm that only time can confer, leaving the buyer the option to leave it as is or polish it according to their taste.
Please note that, as clearly visible in the photographs, the glass of the lower shelf/base is missing. Being a simple and linear element, it can be easily custom-made by a common glazier. The side glass panels also show some marks and small imperfections compatible with the object's age and historicity. The étagère is sold in its current state, with the remaining glass shelves present.
With transparent crystal shelves and chromated main parts, this Italian design marvel measures 80 cm in width, 140 cm in height, and 35 cm in depth, perfect for stylishly displaying books, art objects, or precious collections.
Our custom packaging ensures that this piece of art arrives in the best possible condition, protecting it during shipping and guaranteeing that its splendor is ready to illuminate any space with its distinctive presence.
