About the Item

Bar cabinet, Italy, 1950s. Designed in the refined style of Paolo Buffa, this exquisite piece exemplifies the Italian mid-century neoclassical aesthetic. Meticulously crafted with exceptional attention to detail, the cabinet features a sophisticated structure in inlaid woods of various species, elegantly adorned with floral marquetry motifs. The interior reveals mirrored glass panels that enhance the sense of depth and luminosity, complemented by finely executed brass fittings and trim. Resting gracefully on slender, tapered legs with brass sabots, the cabinet balances luxury with understated elegance. Both decorative and functional, it reflects the craftsmanship and artistic sensibility of postwar Italian design, where traditional artistry merged harmoniously with modernist proportions and timeless sophistication. A distinguished statement piece for the discerning collector or interior.
