£7,995.00
An Italian modular wall unit in warm-toned hardwood, attributed to Franco Albini and dating to the late 1950s. The system comprises seven shelves, two two-door cabinets, a drop-front cocktail cabinet, and a bank of five drawers, all designed to be arranged in any configuration. Finished with leather handles and adjustable brass feet and tops.

Interiors of mid century, Milanese modern or contemporary minimalist tone take this exceptionally well because the system behaves as furniture and architecture simultaneously.
