About the Item

Modular Vanity by Carlo Urbinati, Italy, 1970s A rare and innovative modular vanity designed by Carlo Urbinati in the 1970s, exemplifying the forward-thinking spirit of Italian mid-century modern design. Crafted from high-quality dark brown PVC with chrome-plated steel and vinyl details, this multifunctional piece combines clean aesthetics with practical utility. The collapsible structure includes a spacious top compartment with an interior mirror, a concealed drawer, and ample storage beneath the padded seat. Designed to maximize function in compact spaces, it serves as both a vanity and seating solution—ideal for bedrooms, dressing rooms, or studio apartments. Urbinati’s design reflects the influence of Joe Colombo, whose modular and space-saving concepts reshaped contemporary living in the 1960s and ’70s. This piece captures that same spirit of adaptability and elegance, making it a sculptural yet highly functional addition to any interior. Condition: Very good vintage condition. Minor wear consistent with age and use. Dimensions: Height: 31.5 in (80 cm) Width: 20.5 in (52 cm) Depth: 20 in (51 cm)
