The Sculptural "Dressboy": Italian Mid-Century Valet Chair by Fratelli Reguitti, 1950s
A quintessential icon of mid-century Italian sophistication, this "gentleman's servant" by Fratelli Reguitti blends high-end craftsmanship with avant-garde functionality. Reflecting the organic modernism often associated with the school of Ico & Luisa Parisi, this valet chair is as much a sculptural statement as it is a practical dressing aid.
The frame is expertly crafted from stained beech wood, boasting a rich grain and warm amber tones. It features an anatomically shaped coat hanger, a dedicated trouser rail, and an integrated seat upholstered in its original black skai (faux leather). Polished brass accents provide a refined contrast, hallmark of the golden era of Italian design. This piece is a must-have for discerning collectors looking to elevate a bedroom or dressing suite with authentic 1950s character.
