Lacquered Goatskin Side Table attributed to Aldo Tura

Extremely rare art deco lacquered wood and goatskin occasional/side table with rounded tapered legs attributed to Aldo Tura, Italy 1950’s. In great vintage condition with surface level scratches and small cracks to edges of lacquer. 

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.
