Luciano Frigerio Macassar Ebony Credenza with Brass Relief 1970s
-
Description
A striking study in contrast and craftsmanship, this sculptural credenza by Luciano Fugiario is a masterwork of Italian modernism and Mid-Century Design. Crafted in rich Macassar ebony, the cabinet’s surface is a graphic artwork with dramatic striations of deep espresso and amber tones.
If the contrast of the wood grain is not eye-catching enough, a brutalist-style relief in brass runs horizontally across the cabinet facade concealing the individual doors while also acting as the door hardware. This textured, cast-metal band evokes both primitive and futuristic art.
Inside, a suite of drawers and shelving offers refined storage with brass hardware detailing. A bold fusion of natural elegance and industrial edge—this is Fugiario at his most poetic. Italy, 1970's
