This sideboard cabinet, crafted in the 1960s by Alberto Salvati and Ambrogio Tresoldi, is a prime example of how neoclassical design principles were incorporated into midcentury Furniture. Produced in Lissone (Milan) for a private commission, this cabinet is crafted with the utmost care and precision, using only the finest materials.
One of the cabinet's standout features is its use of exotic woods, including teak and cherrywood. These materials give the piece a warm, organic feel, while also imbuing it with a sense of sophistication and refinement.
Another eye-catching element of the sideboard is its use of pink mirrored glass. This unique feature adds an unexpected pop of color to the piece, while also creating a sense of depth and visual interest.
Despite its age, this sideboard cabinet has been exceptionally well-preserved, maintaining its original beauty and charm.
Between 1960 and 1980, Alberto Salvati and Ambrogio Tresoldi livened up the Milanese cultural scene, bringing the art and architecture confluence to the centre of their research. Known for the use of colour and essences, their projects were systematically published in Domus when its executive director was Gio Ponti.
Graduated in 1960 at Milan Polytechnic with Carlo de Carli, Salvati & Tresoldi began to think about a new concept of design, which goes beyond the functionalist limits of rationalism towards the inclusion of the spiritual aspects’ immateriality in architecture.
Materials: Cherrywood, teak, pink mirrored glass.
