Silvio Cavatorta

Italian designer Silvio Cavatorta worked in the 1950s, creating furniture in the sculptural spirit of postwar Italian design. His armchairs, desks, wardrobes and cabinets, often in maple or other fine woods with brass fittings, feature expressive curves and carefully shaped profiles. Collectors look for his seating and case pieces with original wood surfaces and brass details, prized for their elegance and quality of craftsmanship.
