About the Item

Two twin shelves perfect for being positioned symmetrically on the sides of a door or for use as a room divider. This pair of vintage bookcases are probably made in Italy during the space age era, between 1960 and 1970 and were made with high quality materials. The structure is made up of uprights in solid beech wood stained, and not lacquered, in an amaranth color which recalls the wooden essence of mahogany. The smoky green glass is set by chromed metal shelves, which surround the wooden uprights like tall tribal bracelets, making them stand out. The contrast between the mahogany-colored wood and the chromed metal is truly stunning, making these etageres sophisticated and elegant. The bookcases are in good vintage condition. They show minimal signs of wear visible in the photos. Minimal signs of oxidation on the chrome and some marks on the wood at the feet. Reach out for any questions.

Space Age Night Stands in the style of Luigi Massoni in Chrome & Leather, 70s
By Luigi Massoni, Poltrona Frau
Located in Roma, IT
A pair of truly special space age nightstands, which you can place on the sides of a bed or join them in a single large chest of drawers, all this by moving them comfortably thanks to the wheels with which they are equipped. Most likely made in Italy, these vintage nightstands have no labels or brands that attest to their attribution but the sinuous curves and the use of leather to cover the wooden structure are very reminiscent of the works of designer Luigi Massoni for the historic Italian company Poltrona Frau . The decorative details are what I love most about these 70s bedside...
