About the Item

Modular 50s desk shelf. Comprising two open top shelves, a central compartment with a hinged door and a bottom drawer, the piece offers storage and display solutions in a compact format. The lines are straight and elegant, with curved side rails and tapered feet, typical of the modernist aesthetic of the time. The gold-finished metal handles contrast with the medium colour of the wood, providing a discreet decorative touch. It shows visible signs of use and wear, particularly on the surface of the base and the drawer, which attests to its journey over time. Ideal for vintage-inspired interiors, reading spaces or as a decorative support in circulation areas, this bookcase combines visual lightness and versatility.
