The story
This beautiful chest of drawers designed by Paolo Buffa in Italy in the 1940s imparts a cosy, chic and glowing mood to a space. The warm rosewood remains looking beautiful and smooth eighty plus years later. Elegantly shaped, seating on two curved feet, this commode features three large drawers, and three smaller ones, with sycamore wood framing and brass handles. The piece feels delightfully modern for the Art Deco era, and charmingly vintage now. It is a very fine example of high-quality Italian design and craftsmanship by Paolo Buffa, with a beautiful construction and finish. It has been fully restored and revarnished, and is found in a great vintage condition.
About Paolo Buffa
Paolo Buffa (1903-1970) was a Milanese architect and furniture designer who trained at the Politecnico di Milano and worked with Gio Ponti early in his career. Close to the Novecento movement, he designed elegant furniture produced by skilled Cantù workshops, often in fine woods with ebonised details, brass and glass. Collectors value his cabinets, desks and seating for their neoclassical refinement and superb craftsmanship.
