Overview
Elegant pair of Italian bedside tables designed by Angelo Mazzola for Salpol, Italy, 1970s. Characterized by a refined geometric structure, the pieces are entirely covered in warm-toned parchment and enriched with subtle brass details.
Each bedside table features three spacious drawers, combining practical storage with a sophisticated and distinctly decorative presence.
Description
The pair stands out for its clean architectural proportions and the extensive use of parchment, which covers the top, sides, frame and drawer fronts.
The natural characteristics of the material create subtle variations in tone and texture, ranging from soft ivory and beige nuances to warmer golden shades. These irregularities give each surface a unique appearance and emphasize the artisanal quality of the pieces.
The three wide drawers are framed by thin metallic details, creating a refined horizontal rhythm across the façade while maintaining the overall purity of the design.
Design & Function
Designed as functional bedside storage, each piece is equipped with three generous drawers.
The slightly projecting top, recessed drawer fronts and substantial outer frame create a balanced architectural composition. The absence of conventional handles further enhances the clean appearance of the design, allowing the material and proportions to become the main decorative elements.
Thanks to their generous dimensions and low profile, the pieces can be used not only as bedside tables but also as small chests of drawers or sophisticated accent cabinets.
Materials & Aesthetic
Parchment is the defining element of the design, giving the pair its distinctive warm and luminous appearance.
Its naturally varied surface creates subtle tonal differences throughout the furniture, enhancing the sense of depth and craftsmanship. Brass details along the drawer fronts introduce a discreet metallic contrast, adding definition and elegance without disturbing the minimalist geometry of the pieces.
The combination of parchment, brass and wood reflects the refined material experimentation typical of luxury Italian furniture of the period.
