The structure features a splendid vertically grained wood veneer, with a front featuring curved elements and contoured profiles, framed by dark, glossy finishes.

The black glass top gives the cabinet a particularly sophisticated look.

The central compartment is organized as a bar cabinet, with a wood-lined interior and glass shelves.

The internal lighting system is particularly interesting: the two lights turn on automatically when the central doors are opened, a functional and refined detail typical of high-end furniture of the period.

The cabinet rests on four slender legs, also featuring a dark finish, which visually lighten the structure.

A piece of great character, ideal for a mid-century Italian-style space, both as a bar cabinet and as a statement piece.

The combination of wood, black glass, soft shapes, and interior lighting makes this piece particularly interesting for collectors and enthusiasts of 1950s Italian design.

The cabinet shows normal signs of wear due to age and use.
The electrical system has recently been redone.
It is recommended to replace the two light bulbs with two LED ones.
The locks are decorative. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
