About the Item

Wall unit, walnut, smoked glass, Italy, 1970s This bookcase, dating from the 1970s, embodies a quietly assertive modernist ethos with a distinctly architectural sensibility. Crafted in richly toned walnut, the piece reads as a sculptural composition as much as a functional storage system. Despite its size and volume, the unit avoids feeling heavy. That is partly due to the mix of open and closed compartments, which keeps the composition light and breathable. Some of the cabinet doors have faceted smoked glass panels, which add a layer of depth and subtle reflection. What makes the design particularly compelling is the tension between precision and warmth. The sharp angles and clean lines of the cabinetry contrast with the natural grain and warmth of the walnut. It is functional, yes – a combination of shelving, cabinets, and display niches – but it is also expressive.
