Item description

This artifact asserts itself with a powerful plastic charge, fully embodying Aldo Tura's investigation into the use of parchment. The material is here elevated to a valuable element, exhibiting a shifting nature capable of converting the presence of the furniture into a profound sensory experience. The structure, characterized by a generously sized top and impeccable formal balance, is supported by a cylindrical base. The surfaces, perceived as soft and velvety to the touch, intercept the light, diffusing it in warm and modulated hues, revealing the most reserved and precious essence of the raw material. The work concentrates the stylistic features that define Tura's artistic approach: the tactile sensuality of the parchment, the rigorous and proportioned architecture, the use of color as an emotional factor, and the constant oscillation between artisanal methods and experimentation. Tura, a unique and visionary personality in the context of Milanese design, was ahead of his time. Through his furniture upholstered with unconventional materials – parchment, eggshell, velvet, or leather – he anticipated the advent of a sophisticated decorativism and a refined eccentricity that would shape Italian taste in the '60s and '70s. This table, coming from a limited production entirely overseen by Tura's workshops, constitutes the perfect fusion of artisanal know-how and material research. These qualities make his creations particularly sought after in the international collecting scene today. The design, which combines solemnity and lyricism, conveys an idea of discreet and cultured luxury, finding the ultimate expression of its aesthetic authenticity in the natural imperfection of the parchment.
