Aldo Tura Wall Mirror with Resin Coat, Wood and Paper Motifs, 50s

Description
Aldo Tura was an Italian designer who established his furniture manufacturing house in Lombardy in 1939. Working between the trends of Art Deco and modernism, Tura created unique and luxurious furniture and accessories, which were characterized by rich materials, sculptural forms, and exclusive craftsmanship techniques. In the postwar years, while many furniture manufacturers were adapting their production methods to mass production, Tura continued to engage in traditional craft methods. He preferred complex forms and labor-intensive processes that could never be replicated in a large-scale production system. As a result, the number of Tura's works available in the market remained small. Today Tura's company continues to produce luxury furniture in Lombardy, but much information about the artist has been lost over time. The Brooklyn Museum in New York has several of Tura's works, which were originally displayed in the traveling exhibition "Italy at Work: Her Renaissance in Design Today."
Here we have a mirror, with wood structure covered in parchment and with decorative paper motifs made by Aldo Tura in 50s. It could be hung on the wall in dining room, or in the studio room, or also in the bedroom.
