Vivai del Sud wood, rattan and bamboo chest of drawers, Itlay, 1970s

A three-drawer dresser in wood, rattan, and bamboo, crafted by Vivai del Sud, Italian production from the 1970s
The unmistakable style of Vivai del Sud blends exotic, luxurious, and domestic elements, a combination that each piece associated with the renowned Italian brand communicates at first glance. Small sections of rattan are seamlessly integrated into the dresser's smooth surfaces, appearing on the drawer fronts and the top, creating a dynamic texture reminiscent of ocean waves. These waves evoke tropical shores where bamboo, rattan, and malacca thrive—not only enriching the landscape but also serving as essential raw materials for Vivai del Sud’s creations.

A hallmark of Italian craftsmanship, this Roman brand became synonymous in the 1970s and 1980s with a carefree, indulgent approach to luxury, embodying the iconic aesthetic of a decade that continues to inspire contemporary nostalgia. The presented dresser comes with a coordinating oval mirror and is in excellent condition, completely original in every detail. Placing this piece in a contemporary interior extends the dialogue between indoor and outdoor influences, between tropical allure and urban sophistication—an interplay that defines some of the most compelling aesthetic reflections Vivai del Sud offered through its distinguished production.
