Historical notes and mobile curiosities

The famous antiquarian Silva sent us a client to our laboratory because he wanted to reproduce one of his Venetian furniture as a support for the TV. They brought us the original 2-door shaped and carved sideboard dating back to the second half of the eighteenth century, to reproduce it custom-made in walnut wood. We took all the necessary material: dimensions, tracing of "rib" shapes on plywood panel, sampling of a hand carved leg. This material was necessary to perfectly reproduce the high quality handcrafted TV cabinet, a true synonym of Made in Italy. The passion and experience of the Vangelista Mobili 1960 brand manages to reproduce unique pieces of high value from original furniture.
