Pair of Italian Parchment Nightstands Attributed to Paolo Buffa, 1950s
A pair of 1950s accent tables or nightstands attributed to Italian architect and designer Paolo Buffa, featuring parchment-wrapped surfaces and brass accents. Oval, rose-tinted mirrored tops rest above single drawers with scalloped brass pulls. The elegant pedestal bases, accented with intricate brass motifs, taper into gracefully curved quadpod legs.
Paolo Buffa (1903–1970) defined mid-century Italian elegance with his finely crafted, sophisticated designs. His work merges neoclassical influences with modernist restraint, using luxurious materials like wood, parchment, and brass. Known for graceful proportions and delicate detailing, Buffa collaborated with master artisans, elevating traditional craftsmanship into refined, functional art. His pieces, with their understated curves and timeless appeal, remain icons of Italian design.
