This stunning piece is a labeled Aldo Tura bar cabinet, a fine example of Italian mid-century modern design. Aldo Tura was a Milanese designer known for his luxurious and distinctive use of materials, particularly lacquered goatskin parchment, which gives this cabinet its rich, organic, and almost marbled appearance. The glossy surface and mottled amber tones are hallmarks of his work, creating a sense of warmth and glamour. The cabinet’s form is sleek and architectural, combining minimalism with a touch of Deco-inspired drama. Its tall, narrow profile includes a mirrored bar compartment at the top, revealed by two outward-swinging doors. The interior features glass shelving and mirrored backing, perfect for displaying bottles or glassware while enhancing the light and depth of the space. Below, a set of small drawers and a flat work surface are ideal for mixing drinks or storing accessories, while the lower cabinet offers additional concealed storage which originally house a small refrigerator. Tura’s pieces are highly collectible, often considered both sculptural and functional. This bar cabinet, with its clean lines and lavish finish, is a standout example of mid-century Italian design and would suit interiors ranging from Hollywood Regency to contemporary eclectic.
