Altamira

Altamira is a cabinet with four doors and ten alcoves, made as a single block using wood with vertical grain.
It is manually finished on all sides using a gouge. The hinges are reverse and visible, made in brushed steel.
The entire manufacturing and finishing process is carried out manually in our workshop.
The wood used for this piece is Juglans Regia – common Italian walnut; not dried but “raw”. This wood belongs to the Latin tradition of furniture-making and features an extremely compact fibre which can however be worked without too much difficulty; it is therefore highly suitable for household items.
The clean vertical form on a lozenge-shaped base and the squared alcoves of the division give this cabinet a serene and composed appearance. When the doors are opened to access the interior, the image is beautifully transformed.
