About the Item

A refined and highly versatile matching pair of Italian modernist chests of drawers, attributed to Ico Parisi and manufactured by Spartaco Brugnoli. Executed in richly grained walnut with elegant brass detailing, the pair exemplifies the sophisticated material dialogue and architectural clarity that define Parisi’s mid-century work. Each chest features clean, rectilinear lines softened by the warmth of the walnut veneer, while the inlaid brass pulls introduce a subtle yet luxurious accent. The brass hardware is seamlessly integrated into the drawer fronts, underscoring the thoughtful craftsmanship and restrained elegance characteristic of high-quality Italian production from the period. Together, the two chests offer twelve generously sized drawers, providing ample storage without compromising visual refinement. The modular nature of the set adds to its appeal and functionality. The chests may be placed inline to create a longer, credenza-like configuration, or used separately as individual storage pieces, allowing for flexible placement in a variety of interiors, from bedrooms to living or office spaces. An exceptional example of Italian modernist design, combining form, function, and versatility. This pair stands as both a practical storage solution and a sophisticated design statement. Designer: Attributed to Ico Parisi Manufacturer: Spartaco Brugnoli Origin: Italy Materials: Walnut, brass Condition: Good vintage condition, with minor wear consistent with age and use A rare and elegant set that captures the enduring appeal of Italian mid-century craftsmanship and design.
