Italian Architectural Grid-Structured Higboard or Bookcase in Walnut

About the Item

Highboard or bookcase, walnut, Italy, 1980s Exceptional bookcase made in Italy that perfectly balances architectural elegance with a natural approach. The design is defined by a graphical structure, featuring a grid-like pattern of wooden intersections that create angular outlines with striking apertures. The upper section is structured with open shelving, offering a display for books and decorative objects. The warm, brown-toned hue of the walnut wood softens the bold, geometric design, imbuing the piece with a soothing, natural allure.
