Aldo Tura

Wood and brass basket by Aldo Tura for Macabo, Cusano Milanino, Italy, 1960’s.

After establishing his furniture company in 1939 just outside Milan, Aldo Tura met his greatest success during the ’50s, keeping the craftsmanship alive in his production and focusing on furnishings and objects characterized by richness and the exotic nature of the materials combined with sculptural forms.

Tura’s objects are always the result of a meticulous process, which at the time could not be replicated in an industrial way, which is why the number of the designer’s pieces remains limited and highly sought after on the market.
