About the Item

aldo Tura nasce nel 1909 ed è designer produttore, fondando la sua casa di produzione nel 1939 in Lombardia. Lavorando tra lo stile Art Decò e quello modernista , Tura crea mobili ed accessori singolari e di lusso , caratterizzati da materiali ricchi, forme scultoree e tecniche artigianali esclusive. Il lavoro di tura è diventato da collezione , soprattutto le sue creazioni con finiture esotiche- gusci d' uovo, pelle di capra, pergamena _e dai colori intensi come rosso, verde , giallo. Tura fa parte dei talenti italiani del Mid-century. Negli anni del dopoguerra, mentre molti produttori sono intenti ad adattarsi a metodi di produzione per la massa, tura rimane dedito all'artigianato lento e tradizionale. favorisce forme intricate e complesse con processi ad alta intensità di lavoro, che non possono essere replicati da un sistema di fabbrica su larga scala. Come risultato , il numero di tavoli di TURA sul mercato rimane limitato. Oggi l'azienda di TURA continua a produrre arredamento di Lusso, ma molte informazioni al riguardo di Aldo Tura sono andate perdute.

Aldo Tura

One of the most enigmatic and polarizing figures to emerge in Italian design, Aldo Tura is an outlier in the world of mid-century furniture. The designer’s glamorous bar carts, coffee tables, cabinets and more resist categorization and draw inspiration from Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Baroque, Surrealist and modernist styles.

Tura moved through distinct phases in his career in terms of aesthetics, influences and finishes, rendering his life’s work exciting and diverse. Despite these phases, he held a singular devotion to one material: lacquered goatskin. Tura established a furniture production house in 1939 in Lombardy, and some of his early work focused on tables, decorative lamps and more. He later expanded to bar furnishings like rolling carts, cabinets and complementary barware accessories like ice buckets and cocktail shakers. The eccentric, gleaming and luxe surface of lacquered goatskin was a constant, along with eggshell, parchment and leather.

By the 1950s, Tura had begun to use hand-painted figural panels on the surface of cabinets, serveware (such as carafes) and other pieces. He even replicated famous works by artists like Monet and Bruegel the Elder and art from the Middle Ages, sometimes playfully embedding the paintings on cabinets shaped like oversize books. Even though he had a favored color palette of rich chocolate browns and deep emeralds, his style remained consistently hard to define.

Tura was unlike most of his Italian contemporaries but held a similar reverence for the nation’s traditional craftsmanship and artisanal techniques. He never followed the growing trend of mass-produced, industrial furniture and stuck to creating small, meticulously handcrafted collections. This principled choice means that today, a Tura piece is a rare and highly coveted collectible. The Tura firm continues to operate in Brianza, promoting Italian craftsmanship and the eclectic materials embraced by their namesake designer.
