GIPSY LOW SIDEBOARD
With its finishes and lines of other times, GIPSY low leads the memory back to past times and exotic places.
The GIPSY low cupboard rediscovers the suggestive power of wood, reshaping tradition through the search for unusual pairings of shapes and finishes: the shapes of the ancient ice-houses can be recognized, revisited in a modern way.
The essential but strong design lines are inspired by the creative Caribbean architecture. Provided with one compartment with a full-length drawer, the cupboard is made of solid wood with surface finishes that let its nature shine through. The steel details, finished with the classic streak of weathered silver, awaken the textured veinss of wood exposed by sandblasting and by the saw cut.
The particular wooden latch and the hinges, created on purpose by expert craftsmen of the branch, recall to the memory a past time that conveys a timeless power to the object. GIPSY low gives the option of making the internal texture the same or different from the external one.

FEATURES
THE LATCH CLOSURE
The ancient latch closure is redefined with all new pairings of materials. The solid wood engages with the weathered steel latch, made on purpose for GIPSY low, creating a textured contrast between past and present.
THE REFINED DETAILS
Conceived and manufactured by expert craftsmen of the sector, the hinges present on the four shutters of the cupboard are a paean to the expression of the material.
THE ARTISANAL SOUL
The GIPSY low cupboard is made completely of sandblasted solid wood, with a surface carving that enhances its natural look. The final effect recreates the irregular cuts left by the old craftsmen's saws and brings a new texture to the wood.
