Vintage Brutalist Brass Cross
About the Item
Rare brass cross designed by Arnaldo Pomodoro and his brother Giò Pomodoro in the 1950s, of fine Italian manufacture. It is part of the V/58/16 model.
The cross is made entirely of brass, of superhuman beauty. The cross has a fairly classical structure, with the two bands meeting to form a cross. The corners are quite rounded. The end of each band widens a lot to give life to real square shapes, exceptionally decorated.
The workmanship is done in very gentle and beautiful squiggles, with the application of small, but very impressive, brass finials. In addition, there appear to be carved elements representing the legs, arms and head of Christ.
The cross is ideal as furniture for true collectors.

Italian Vintage Green Wooden Door from Capri
Located in Milano, IT
Wonderful Italian wooden door from Capri belonging to the 1960s, in a beautiful rustic chic style.
The door is a classic rectangular door, but lower than the current norm because houses were smaller before.
The door is made of fine wood and very durable, with clear scratches and wear, but this is what gives beauty to the object.
The lower part is decorated with two pairs of rectangles, finely carved.
The upper part, on the other hand, shows two glass rectangles, with a wooden bar dividing them in the middle.
The door has a lock and handle: both are made of brass in patina, attached to the wood with two screws.
The door is a wonderful piece of furniture to refer to the vintage and rustic...
