About the Item

A large wall-mounted sideboard with four paneled doors, oak wood, Italian manufacture, 1950s Designing a wall-mounted cabinet presents a unique challenge for both renowned designers and skilled cabinetmakers. Creating a piece that, without the usual support of legs or a base—often a defining element of furniture design—can still convey elegance, balance, and style requires careful thought and a refined touch. In this particular piece, the challenge—faced with nothing but a pencil and drafting table—has been successfully met through a clever combination of high-quality materials and a strict architectural volume. The starting point is oak wood, chosen for its richly textured, variegated grain, which serves as a natural decorative element across all surfaces. To enhance its visual impact, the doors are framed with a sequence of small moldings in a subtle Art Deco style. The designer behind this piece appears to have had an eye for classical aesthetics: the central placement of the door knobs seems almost like a vanishing point in a perspective drawing. The cabinet’s parallelepiped structure adheres to a strict geometric form, interrupted only by a delicately tapered riser at the top—a refined detail that softens the otherwise rigorous lines and lends the piece a sense of warmth and approachability. The sideboard has been professionally restored in our specialized workshop. The shellac finish enriches the oak’s tone with a soft, luminous patina.
