Description

A beautiful book case model “Eta”, designed by Achille Castiglioni and manufactured by BBB in Italy around 1970.

This is a unique piece of Italian design that is made to combine different units to fit perfectly in many different kinds of decors. We have two elements available and sell them together as one cabinet. This structure allows it to be placed in many different ways, together or separately! This cabinet / bookcase consists out of two elements that can be placed in different positions depending on the interior. It is made of black wood with black metal feet and has a simple, straight forward design with only rectangular shapes.

The cabinet remains in very good, vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina!
