This striking piece embodies the luxurious and artistic spirit that made Tura’s work so highly sought after among collectors. Defined by its sculptural waterfall form, the console is wrapped entirely in hand-wrapped goatskin parchment, creating a luminous surface rich with organic variation, depth, and character. Each panel displays unique tonal shifts and natural patterns, ensuring no two examples are exactly alike.

The design is remarkably restrained yet visually captivating.

The result is a piece that feels both refined and organic, blending Italian glamour with modernist simplicity.

Whether appreciated as a functional console or a sculptural statement, this table commands attention through its materiality and craftsmanship. Its timeless profile, rich patina, and distinctive goatskin finish make it a compelling addition for collectors and design enthusiasts seeking an exceptional example of 1970s Italian design.
