About the Item

An architecturally compelling Italian Mid-Century Modern corner room divider shelving unit, attributed to the elegant design sensibility of the Gio Ponti style. This piece offers a sophisticated, adaptable storage solution, featuring a floor-to-ceiling adjustable support rod intended for secure wall mounting in a corner, creating a distinct, defined nook. The thoughtful design allows the open shelving side to function as a visual room divider, maximizing space and light while providing curated display opportunities. The unit showcases superb Italian craftsmanship with its richly figured, bookmatched wood, lending a sense of warmth and movement to the grain. A key visual detail is the detached cabinet element, which offers four functional drawers. The cabinet's freestanding design allows it to be moved or utilized as a separate chest of drawers, adding a layer of functional flexibility. The overall piece is elegantly finished with a contrasting wood panel featuring a refined grissinatura texture—a finely carved vertical ribbed motif typical of high-end Italian cabinetry from the era. This piece is presented in original condition, displaying visible wear consistent with its age and use, including chips, scratches, marks, and an authentic patina that attests to its well-lived history. A matching desk from the same collection is also available and listed separately (LU922447031182), offering a rare opportunity to form a complete, cohesive Mid-Century office or living space arrangement. Shot with Lounge Chair by Miroslav Navrátil (LU922442659302 ). Please inquire for additional details or photographs.
