λ PAOLO BUFFA FOR GIUSEPPE ANZANI: A RARE ITALIAN MARQUETRY INLAID VELLUM SIDEBOARD SIGNED ANZANI AND DATED 1941 The marquetry depicting scenes from Homer's Iliad and the Odyssey 90cm high, 189cm wide, 42cm deep The Italian architect-designer Paolo Buffa (1903-1970) is best known for an array of furniture designs that marry Neoclassical and Art Deco motifs and scenes with modernist principles. After studying architecture at Milan's Politecnico he established a design studio in 1928 with Antonio Cassi Ramelli, whom he had met whilst working in the atelier of Gio Ponti and Emilio Lancia. Designing for the Milanese upper classes in the 1930s onwards, Buffa's entrusted his designs to some of the finest ébénistes ensuring that they were expertly produced in finest materials, resulting in a quality that rivalled French cabinetmakers such as Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann. Giuseppe Anzani had established his workshop in the small village of Mariano near Milan. A highly skilled cabinet maker specialising in inlay and marquetry- he collaborated with famous designers, architects and artists such as Buffa, Cassi Ramelli, Gariboldi, Borsani, Gio Ponti and many others. Although his work at the Golden Gate International Exposition (GGIE) of 1939 brought his work to international notice- the second World War resulted in the loss of a large number of his recorded works and signed examples of his work are rare at auction.A comparable example with similar subject inlay to this work was sold at Wannenes Art Auction Genoa, Italy, 14th July 2020 lot 127 €8,500. Catalogued as "Importante credenza da soggiorno " Odissea - l'isola di Ea". Fusione di bronzo, legno di sicomoro, pergamena, intarsi in essenze nobili. Firmato Anzani sul fronte."
