{"product_id":"italian-rectangular-box-in-chrome-metal-and-faux-tortoiseshell-lacquer-with-light-wood-int","title":"Italian Rectangular Box in Chrome Metal","description":"Italy, 1970s. Faux tortoiseshell lacquer, paired with chrome metal, embodied a discreet luxury in Italian occasional furniture of the era — a play of materials between the coolness of the metal and the warmth of a lacquer imitating tortoiseshell. This rectangular box is an elegant variation on the theme.\n\nThe chrome metal body frames a lid entirely covered in a reddish-brown faux tortoiseshell lacquer, with its characteristic marbled swirls. Inside, the light wood interior, divided into two equal compartments, offers a clean contrast with the metal exterior.\n\nMint condition: the chrome shows a few minor marks of use, nothing serious, and the faux tortoiseshell lacquer is in very good condition, free of chips or dullness. An exceptional piece, remarkably well preserved.\n\nAt 22 cm long by 12 cm wide and 3.5 cm high, this box sits on a desk or coffee table, holding jewellery, mail or small objects. A sober, precious object, typical of Italian refinement in the seventies.","brand":"Treaptyque","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57277118054665,"sku":null,"price":536.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/5290\/4457\/files\/o0uqpyjxe4fve4psetu7.jpg?v=1787678085","url":"https:\/\/oblist.com\/fr\/products\/italian-rectangular-box-in-chrome-metal-and-faux-tortoiseshell-lacquer-with-light-wood-int","provider":"The Oblist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
