Franco Albini Radio in Cristallo for Cassina, Italy - new
Located in Berlin, DE
please note: 842 subwoofer wireless for clearglass-radio is currently not available. Radio is available separately though. Radio in Cristallo station by Franco Albini in 1938. Relaunched in 2021. Manufactured by Cassina in Italy. Radio in Cristallo goes straight to the heart of the project that Franco Albini created as a prototype-model in 1938 for his home. He took apart and reassembled a radio in a wood cabinet received as a wedding gift, exposing the electric components by pressing them between two sheets of tempered glass. A tribute to lightness, a step that catapults the designer in the direction of bold modernity that, by demonstrating progress, narrates its value. In concert with Fondazione Franco Albini, Cassina has optimized the design the architect entered into a competition by the Swiss company Wohnbedarf in 1940, keeping the same size while adding new Bluetooth technology and an optional subwoofer that, connected to Wi-Fi, creates a more enveloping atmosphere. Radio in Cristallo will also be offered in a special limited edition of only five pieces. The Radio in Cristallo L.E., with a numbered metal plate on the side of the structure, will feature white knobs...

Midcentury Wood and Brass Italian Magazine Rack in Ico Parisi Style, 1950s
Located in Roma, IT
Amazing midcentury wood and brass folding magazine rack. This item was produced in Italy during 1950s in the style of Ico Parisi. This folding magazine rack is marvellous as it has two watercolour landscapes engravings on each side affixed behind the glass, plus beech and brass details. Iconic design and unique features, this piece is going to be a central point in a midcentury-style living room or entrance hall. Ico Parisi was an Italian architect and designer. Born Domenico Parisi in 1916 in Palermo, Italy, he was involved in building construction and architecture in Como during his early adulthood. By the 1940s, Parisi took up filmmaking and began designing furniture in 1945, for which he would become most renowned. His designs are characterized by their Italian Mid-Century Modern aesthetic, constructed using soft woods often cut into boomerang-like shapes, augmented by metal slats and boldly colored upholstery. His most prolific period was the two decades that preceded 1965, when he married and formed a design team with his wife, Luisa Aiani, in 1948. He studied architecture between 1949-1952 under Alberto...

Rare, Antique & Stunning Viennese Secession Ebonized Wood & Brass Magazine Stand
Located in Lisse, NL
Marvelous design, beautiful materials and excellent condition stand. There are collectors of the Viennese Secessionist Style in almost every country on the planet. The finesse of the workmanship, the quality of the materials and the stunning designs have a universal appeal. When it comes to sheer beauty and style, this magazine Stand with its modernist features too is a great example of that finest of Secessionist workmanship. Turning otherwise ordinary objects into works of art is one of the things that the Viennese Style has brought the world. Those works of art have (and still do) lifted the spirit of many an individual and they have brought great style and beauty in living spaces of enthusiasts the world over. This angular Stand with its rounded features and inlaid brass in ebonized wood is a perfect example of this highly decorative and wonderfully stylish Secessionist era. At this moment (and as far as we know) there is only one more of these stands available in the world. That seller is asking double what we are asking and the condition of that particular Stand is not half as good as this stunning specimen. It is only one of the reasons why we expect our Stand to grace someone's office or living space soon. If you like this secessionist Stand...

Vintage, New and Antique Music Stands

Musicians are well acquainted with the practical uses for a vintage, new or antique music stand, which typically consists of a flat, inclined surface that is elevated upon a freestanding column or tripod for the purposes of reading sheet music. Music stands are often lightweight and mobile and may also be adjustable in height as well as with respect to the angle at which the platform is tilted.

Prior to purchasing a music stand, consider the function you intend it to serve. While musicians will primarily use it in the room where their musical instruments are kept in order to read music while honing their craft, will you use it for another purpose?

An antique music stand can be used in a home office to keep a heavy reference book, such as a dictionary, open alongside your desk as you work. Alternatively, in a living room, an old music stand can be an elegant surface against which you can lean a work of art such as a painting or a photograph for prominent display. For decorative purposes or for a musician whose rehearsal space isn’t tied to a specific room, music stands made from a lightweight material are better for portability. But if you’re interested in a stand produced in a heavier material, it will create a bold statement but will likely need to stay in roughly the same place.

Metal music stands are common because they’re fairly lightweight. They are intended to be practical and easily transported to different venues. Some wood music stands are also lightweight. Depending upon the time period, furniture designer and manufacturer, an antique wood music stand might be supported by an alluring triangular plinth base and can sometimes bear decoratively carved embellishments as well as brass arms with candleholders.

On 1stDibs, find a collection of vintage, new and antique music stands as well as other kinds of stands and storage cabinets that can support your efforts to keep your media and creative pursuits neat and orderly in your home.
