Aldo Tura Tiered Lacquered Goatskin Cocktail Table with Concealed Bar, 1970s

Creator: Aldo Tura
Offered by: Venfield

Description
Throughout his career, Italian designer Aldo Tura was known for his distinct approach to furniture and home decor. A pillar in the post-war Italian design movement, Tura’s work emphasized both craftsmanship and modern aesthetics and can be characterized by a unique blend of materials and techniques. The designer often incorporated leather, wood and brass into his work and gained particular recognition for his innovative use of lacquered goatskin. Today his work is highly sought-after by collectors and celebrated for merging artistic expression with functionality.

No better an example of this can be found than in this expertly crafted two-toned lacquered goatskin cocktail table. Its clean lines and modern form help to conceal a mirror-lined dry bar within and accessed via the table top, cleverly designed to slide apart along grooved channels hidden beneath it.
