At Acquired, we are delighted to present this superb large-scale mid-century sideboard designed by the celebrated Italian furniture maker Vittorio Dassi, dating from the 1950s. A wonderful expression of post-war Italian modernism, this substantial yet refined piece unites sculptural design, exquisite craftsmanship, and practical versatility in a way that still feels strikingly contemporary.

Expertly crafted in beautifully stained teak with rich, warm tonality, the sideboard displays Dassi’s unmistakable attention to detail. The sculpted drawer fronts with recessed handholds form a dynamic, architectural rhythm, while the clean sliding doors and understated brass lock plates offer a contrasting sense of calm. Elevated on elongated tapered supports, it sits lightly despite its impressive proportions.

This piece has been professionally restored, ensuring the finish, colour, and detailing are presented in pristine showroom condition while preserving the authentic character of its age. The softly aged brass hardware has been retained with care, adding depth and subtle patina to the overall composition.

Offering excellent storage capacity, the layout includes a bank of drawers to one side and generous shelved cabinet compartments behind the sliding doors, making it not only a beautiful decorative statement but also a highly functional solution for dining, living, or entrance spaces.

For collectors of Italian design or anyone seeking an elegant and useful centrepiece for the home, this Vittorio Dassi sideboard represents a rare and impressive acquisition — a timeless illustration of mid-century Italian style.
