Italian Lacquered Goatskin Parchment Nightstand by Aldo Tura, 1960s - 2 Available

$4,200.00

A 1960s Italian lacquered goatskin nightstand by Aldo Tura, wrapped in his signature parchment and finished in a warm, golden tone. Tura—one of Italy’s most distinctive mid-century designers, celebrated for his unconventional use of goatskin, parchment, and high-gloss lacquers—elevated everyday forms through meticulous craftsmanship, and this two-drawer piece is no exception.

The goatskin surface, lacquered to a soft sheen, reveals natural tonal variations throughout, hallmark traits of Tura’s hand-selected hides. Rounded corners and a recessed plinth base give the silhouette architectural weight, while the dual drawers are set within seamless fronts that maintain the purity of its form.

Retaining its original Aldo Tura maker’s mark, the nightstand is a richly atmospheric accent beside a bed, sofa, or reading chair—an iconic example of Tura’s luxurious, material-forward vision.

Sold and priced individually.
