Gio Ponti Style Rosewood Vanity With Brass Accents, Circa 1950

Offered by: Object Refinery

Description
This phenomenal petite vanity is very much in the style of Gio Ponti, as his delicate and diminutive aesthetic is ever present throughout the piece. A small label, written in Italian on the underside, offers evidence of its origin.

The exquisite rosewood is the highlight of an otherwise simple and highly practical work of functional design. Solid brass adorns the piece, accenting the rosewood with jewelry-like corner wraps, pulls, and sabots.

We discovered that the interior storage space was once illuminated, and as such, we worked to restore that feature. The new lighting is set behind glass within the storage compartment, and the entire piece has been refinished.
