Aldo Tura Green Goatskin Umbrella Stand
Wonderful umbrella stand or huge vase by Aldo Tura in green parchment and metal inlay, in perfect condition.
Along with artists like Piero Fornasetti and Carlo Bugatti, Aldo Tura (1909-1963) definitely belonged to the mavericks of Italian design. Where as the former chose abundant figurative decorations as his hallmark, Bugatti and Tura focussed on applying a specific material. Tura founded his workshop in Milan in 1939 and the company has been in operation ever since.
