Product description
An imposing architectural construction, but essential in its form, as was essential and primary this type of furniture in all Italian homes until the early 1900s.The "Madia", always made of wood, whether Spartan or decorated, was used to raise and preserve the bread, which was placed in the lifting chamber created by the doors located under the tray.Giovanni Michelucci, an important Italian architect, author of great works such as the station of S. Maria Novella in Florence, with this project has reinterpreted and brought in the houses of the 60s, today equipped with TVs and useless furniture, the memory of real and necessary things to man, using a material as real and ancient as wood in the era of plastics. The sideboard is in excellent condition, it has a splendid patina of time and imperceptible signs of use.
