Luigi Caccia Dominioni rare pair of bedside tables in brass

Creator: Luigi Caccia Dominioni
Offered by: Vintage Domus Srl

Description
An exceptional and rare pair of 1950s bedside tables designed by the renowned architect Luigi Caccia Dominioni, a pivotal figure in Italian modernist design. These nightstands, crafted from high-quality walnut wood, are a testament to the architect's ability to blend geometric precision with refined detailing, resulting in a sophisticated yet functional piece of furniture. Their clean lines, luxurious materials, and meticulous craftsmanship make them highly sought-after collector's items, ideal for both contemporary interiors and curated mid-century collections.
These bedside tables embody a minimalist yet elegant design, reflecting the hallmark geometric approach of Caccia Dominioni's architectural language. The structure is both linear and sculptural, with a careful balance of materials that enhances their visual appeal. The walnut wood frame provides warmth and natural sophistication, while the incorporation of glass and brass details adds a contrasting modern touch.

One of the most distinctive features of these nightstands is the oval-shaped recessed handle, seamlessly carved into the wooden drawer front. This elegant indentation is lined with a polished brass frame, an exquisite detail that elevates the design and adds a luxurious feel. The integration of brass not only highlights the craftsmanship but also creates an interplay of textures, contrasting beautifully with the rich walnut grain. The drawers are spacious and well-proportioned, designed for both aesthetic coherence and practical storage.

The tabletop is made from dark glass, expertly fitted within the upper wooden frame to ensure a flawless transition between materials. This element serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose, providing a smooth, reflective surface that enhances the nightstands' modern sophistication. The contrast between the warm tones of the walnut, the sleek transparency of the glass, and the luminous touch of brass gives these pieces a timeless and versatile appeal.
Through their clean, understated lines and subtle but striking details, these nightstands exude an aura of elegance and sophistication. Their refined aesthetic makes them perfect for modern bedrooms, where they can serve as focal points in a carefully curated interior, adding a touch of architectural integrity and luxury. In addition, their sculptural quality and textural richness make them an excellent addition to executive offices or refined living spaces, where they help create an atmosphere of prestige and distinction.
