Pair of cabinets by Guido Faleschini produced by Mariani for Hermès 1970s

Pair of cabinets by Guido Faleschini, produced by Mariani for Hermès, 1970s. France, in wood, velvet, and leather. The volumes are deliberately monolithic, dressed in dark velvet highlighted by metal uprights that structure the façade. The ring handles provide a discreet signature and high-quality hardware, in the saddle-making spirit of the house. The tall proportions and clean lines give a very "interior architecture" presence, ideal for a dressing room, office, or entrance. A rare and highly decorative set, functioning well both as a duo and as separate pieces. Guido Faleschini is an Italian architect-designer known for elegant modernism, based on the rigour of proportions and quality of execution. His work favours understated forms, precise details, and noble materials. His collaborations with high-end publishers are part of luxury furniture designed to last.
