ABOUT PRODUCTID 31945
This mobile étagère from the 1980s is a testament to Italian design, reflecting the era’s modernist, minimalist, and space age influences. The structure is built from clear, glossy plexiglass and features three rectangular glass shelves. Four vertical plexiglass supports are joined with visible metal fasteners at the corners, emphasizing the straightforward, transparent nature of the piece. The proportions are well-balanced – the height (65 cm) slightly exceeds the width (41 cm) and depth (29 cm), resulting in a compact and versatile form. The entire unit stands on four caster wheels, each with a black rubber tread and gold metal cap. The transparent design allows the piece to nearly disappear within an interior, while offering practical function as a bar cart, side table, or mobile shelving unit. The overall condition is very good: minor surface scratches on the plexiglass are consistent with gentle use, with no cracks or major damage.This étagère channels the spirit of 1980s Italian design, when lightness and transparency responded to a desire for novelty. Clear materials create an impression of weightlessness, allowing light to move freely throughout the space. Gold accents on the wheels recall the era’s subtle nod to luxury, while the geometric, almost architectural form highlights a modern sensibility—a time when furniture was expected to be both functional and refined in appearance.The étagère may be paired with other 1980s-inspired furnishings such as low velvet sofas, chrome lamps, or geometric wall graphics. It works in a living room as a mobile bar, side shelving unit by a sofa, or display for glassware and decor. The transparent construction is especially effective in bright, open spaces, where light interaction enhances its visual lightness; it can also be combined with mid-century furniture or minimalist accessories to underscore its collectible, design-driven character.
