AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This Boby trolley, model B23, is a design by the Italian designer Joe Colombo from the 1960s and is produced by B-Line in Italy, The Original. Joe Colombo's signature is embossed in relief on the bottom drawer. The trolley is made of plastic in a soft, warm cream-white. The trolley consists of two modules on wheels, of which the top three swiveling drawers fan outward like a propeller. On the top surface there is a storage rail with compartments and a hole for pens. On the sides there are round, open compartments and at the bottom a deep open bin. The trolley rolls on four black swivel casters and, with its compact form, fits under a desk, beside a sofa, or as a nightstand.

The trolley is in used condition. There are light signs of wear and fine scratches, especially in the bottom bin and on the top surface, and a few small spots along the edges. The drawers turn smoothly and the wheels are complete. All details are visible in the photos.

An iconic piece of Italian design with a recognizable silhouette, that works as a practical storage piece and as a showpiece in a modern, retro, or space-age interior.

Dimensions: height 52.5 cm, width 43 cm, depth 41 cm
