Charming sideboard designed by Vittorio Dassi made in Italy in the middle of the 20th century. This wonderful sideboard was rendered in veneer woods. It has five drawers configured both horizontally and vertically under the horizontal surface. An additional surface in glass adds visual interest. The legs are iconic Dassi which combine with a form that exemplifies the essence of Italian Midcentury design. Overall the piece is in fair condition. It could be a restorer's dream or a perfectionist's burden or simply enjoyed as it is with all that vintage character. It remains beautiful visually in defiance of the evident nicks, scrapes, scratches and blemishes throughout. Please see the many photos accompanying the listing for details.

About the Artist: The furniture of Vittorio Dassi (1893-1973), made in the '40s and '50s, stands out for the choice of fine woods such as rosewood, cherry wood, ash and walnut, often decorated with inlaid panels and crystal signed by prominent master glassworkers. Elegant in design without losing functional quality, its furnishings are comparable to the refined style of Gio Ponti, to whom Dassi was linked by significant collaborations after replacing his father in the company, Dassi Mobili Moderni, based in Lissone. Among the factory’s most important projects is the creation of the furniture for the rooms of the Hotel Royal in Naples, designed by Ponti in the mid-'50s. This was a period that marked the turning point in Dassi’s practice towards more schematic forms and the employment of teak for the production of modular furniture.
