About the Item

Mid 20th Century large buffet by Paolo Buffa, featuring a striking vertical stripe pattern created with contrasting woods. Standing on four slender legs, the piece includes a central two-door cupboard, a cupboard on each side, and subtle brass accents. Its clean lines and graceful proportions exemplify Buffa's skill in blending modernist principles with classical Italian craftsmanship, adding sophistication and making it a true statement piece for any interior. Paolo Buffa (1903–1970) was one of Italy’s most influential mid-century designers, celebrated for his mastery of craftsmanship and innovation in furniture design. Trained as an architect, Buffa’s work combined neoclassical elegance with modernist principles, resulting in pieces that were both functional and exquisitely detailed. Collaborating with leading artisans of the time, he was known for incorporating luxurious materials and sophisticated forms. Buffa’s furniture often featured intricate woodwork and upholstery, making his designs highly sought after by collectors. His influence extended beyond Italy, and his work is now recognised as a cornerstone of mid-century Italian design. CONDITION In Great Vintage Condition - Wear expected with age.
