About the Item
Storage unit or room divider, lacquered steel, Italy, 1970s
This captivating bookcase hails from Italy, a period marked by a break from traditional forms and a playful embrace of space and depth. Crafted from grey lacquered steel, the piece features an asymmetrical layout of zigzagging shelves that enhance the sculpture's three-dimensional, dynamic appearance. Its minimalist foundation, characterized by clear, unembellished lines and the use of steel, creates a visually interesting contrast with its compressed impression. The structure is composed of three individual columns that can be set apart. Despite its unconventional design, the piece still offers practical storage solutions. Books and objects can be placed diagonally, allowing for peculiar and interesting configurations.
Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
