B.B.P (Banfi Belgioioso Peressutti) Italian Wood and Crystal Console, 1941

About the Item

Wonderful and very rare sideboard designed by the great designers Banfi, Belgioiso, Peressutti in 1941. Published a very similar example. The sideboard is inhumanly beautiful, with a base that represents its strong point. The base is made of black painted metal, very elegant and suited to the industrial style that this sideboard follows. The base covers the entire depth of the piece and is made within a rectangular frame that is quite hard and rigid in shape. Within this frame we see three large cube-shaped blocks within which the metal planks have been placed, some diagonally, some straight, some higher. They create a simply enchanting, eye-catching effect. This geometric play is the focal point of this wonderful sideboard. This structure is supported by four rigid, geometric square feet. Above we see the central body of the sideboard made entirely of a dark precious solid wood; there are 3 drawers running the full length of the sideboard, each with two spherical brass inlays allowing them to open. Above this is a smaller top, highlighted by a structure to raise it up, as long as the entire sideboard, made of a beautiful ground crystal that gives it an out-of-the-ordinary beauty. The sideboard is suitable for industrial chic, modern and vintage areas. It is a product that can be very adaptable to the type of environment already present. A similar example of this sideboard is published among the vintage design books.

  • Finely Carved and Ebonized Greek-Style Cabinet
    Located in Milano, IT
    Splendid bar cabinet designed in the 1920s, of fine Italian manufacture, with great mastery of woodwork. The cabinet has two legs at the base that cover the entire depth of the base. The feet are made of wood and have a classic style, reminiscent of ancient Greek structures; they are made of grisaille wood painted white. The central body has a very massive rectangular shape. Both the base and the top are chamfered and have a frame that protrudes, like the friezes on the columns. The top is framed by a very classical Greek fret in white painted wood. The base, on the other hand, is made entirely of ebonised wood, which gives it an even more sumptuous effect. The front cabinet has four doors that open with a brass key in original patina. Each door is decorated with an antique Greek frame...

  • JENNY Large Wall Light or Sconce in Enamel & Brass by Blueprint Lighting
    By Mathieu Matégot, Stilnovo, Blueprint Lighting
    Located in New York, NY
    Introducing Jenny, the latest vintage-inspired fixture from Blueprint Lighting. Named for multi-hyphenate Jenny Mollen; NYT best-selling author, actress, design enthusiast, mom of 2 and wife of actor Jason Biggs. From our Chief Luminary, Kelly Aaron: "I have been working closely with Jenny off and on for the past year while she gives her NYC apartment a facelift--it's been so fun! She and I share a love of 1950s French design, which is obviously a hallmark of the Blueprint aesthetic. One day Jenny texted a pic of a single vintage mid-century French wall sconce she loved and asked if Blueprint could make it for her. Funny enough--I, too, had seen that same sconce the day before and already had my Creative Director/Husband figuring out how to fabricate it. How great is that?! It was meant to be!" The Jenny sconce...

  • Spectacular Thomas Webb Art Nouveau Rock Crystal Vase
    By Thomas Webb & Sons
    Located in Litchfield, CT
    Circa 1900, by Thomas Webb, England. This stunning rock crystal vase by Thomas Webb is engraved in an exquisite Art Nouveau motif, showcasing profuse blossoms, twining vines, and draping boughs. At 13 1/2 inches tall, this is a large, rare, and one-of-a-kind example of Webb’s work. Beautiful filled with flowers or displayed as a dazzling accessory, this is the very definition of a luxe objet. Excellent condition. Remark: “Webb is synonymous with perfection in the glass world." Personal impression: "This vase is aesthetically gorgeous and technically a triumph, but being the child that I am, I love to hold it with the base cupped in my hand and rap it sharply with my knuckle. Like all superb glass, it rings, in this case like a finely tuned bell, deep and musical. To tell how good the glass is, you ring it strongly and the longer it sounds, the better the crystal. This vase rings...
