About the Item

Important bookcase designed by Claudio Salocchi for Sormani in the 1960s. Elegant and refined, it consists of four modules, each in turn composed of 3 height modular blocks. The balance of shelves, compartments and drawers lends lightness to a generously sized cabinet with excellent storage capacity. The handles are made of metal, probably brass, burnished. The compartments, inside, are lined with a distinctive optical paper. Overall condition is good with normal signs of wear consistent with age and use.
