Aldo Tura Low Coffee Table in Wood and Parchment, 70s

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 low table with wooden structure and parchment lining made by Aldo Tura in 70s. It could be used in dining room, among sofas and armchairs, or in the studio room.
