Expertly crafted using honeycomb wood with a rich teak veneer, these units are elevated by refined oak finishes and warm birch interiors. A standout feature is the slatted rear paneling and the sturdy plywood shelves, which provide both structural rhythm and a clean, architectural aesthetic.

designed to break the monotony of perfect symmetry, this set consists of two units with slightly different widths, one wider and one narrower. This subtle variation allows for a more dynamic arrangement, making them perfect as a sophisticated room divider or as a tailored installation for a living room corner. Their "cielo-terra" (floor-to-ceiling) architecture ensures they command the room without overwhelming it.

following a meticulous conservative restoration, these pieces remain solid, robust, and ready for contemporary use. The adjustable brass feet allow for a perfect, stable fit even on uneven floors. While the structure is impeccable, we have preserved the subtle signs of history, small marks and a natural patina that narrate their seventy-year journey and provide an authentic soul.
