Designed by the renowned Italian designer Willy Rizzo in the 1970s, this chrome and bronzed glass étagère is a statement piece that captures the sophistication of the decade. Its polished chrome frame offers clean architectural lines, while the smoked bronze glass shelves provide a striking contrast of light and depth. Designed as both a display unit and a room divider, the piece is open on both sides, making it versatile for placement against a wall or freestanding in the center of a room. Perfect for books, art, or decorative objects, it brings a touch of 1970s glamour to any setting. Rizzo’s designs are celebrated for their luxurious modernism, and this example highlights his talent for combining bold materials with timeless functionality.
