18th-century Italian two-part cupboard

Italian cupboard with two superimposed sections, made of poplar and dating from the 18th century. The piece immediately captivates with its highly distinctive smoky patina. The four smooth, unadorned doors reveal a design choice of great formal rigor, where the piece’s strength lies entirely in its material and color. The shaped shelf-style feet complete a balanced and imposing silhouette with contemporary lines. Italy, 18th century.
