Sculptural Corner Sideboard mod. Train by Alberto Tonni - Italy - 1980s
About the Item
The sculptural sideboard model "Train" represents a unique masterpiece, the result of Alberto Tonni's craftsmanship and artistic vision in the 1980s. Made entirely of richly grained fine woods, this functional work of art is embellished with brass plate handles, which add a touch of elegance and sophistication. The structure of the sideboard is composed of three distinct elements that, when combined, form a visually striking corner piece of furniture. The first element is a linear section equipped with four doors, providing ample space for storing items and keeping the room tidy. The second element is a unique decorative part: a kind of angular cage made of thin brass rods, which gives lightness and dynamism to the whole composition. The third element is an additional storage cabinet with doors accessible from both sides, designed to provide functionality and versatility in daily use. Attention to detail and the harmonious combination of fine materials make the "Train" sideboard not only a piece of furniture, but a true sculpture capable of enhancing any living space with its distinctive presence.
