Aldo Tura Lacquered Goatskin Side/Occasional Table

Extremely rare Aldo Tura art deco lacquered wood and goatskin occasional/side table with rounded tapered legs, Italy 1950’s. In excellent condition, no chips. 

Aldo Tura was one of the most unique design talents of the Italian midcentury. In the postwar years, in a time when most furniture producers were adjusting their production methods toward mass production, Tura remained committed to slow, traditional hand craftsmanship. He favored intricate, complex forms and labor-intensive processes that could never by replicated in a large-scale factory system. As a result, the number of works by Tura available on the vintage market remains limited.
