        Yes, thanks, I saw it and that one has only four shelves.
        Anyway, in my opinion, that the price seems a bit exorbitant. ๐Ÿ˜‰

            Well I don't know, I'm not interested in selling it and I'm not an expert in the field of old furnitures. Anyway I saw one at 2.000 โ‚ฌ somewhere on the net. It was a bit damaged/rusted though.
            Originally this was intended as a modular system with simple and pretty cheap elements. So 7.500 $ for a basic piece like that looks a bit too much for me. I've always thought that, generally speaking, design furnitures are somehow overpriced and especially when you look at modern antiques.

                    Massimo, as always mate your modelling, texturing and studio renders are without equal.

                    And what a stunning piece of furniture to rediscover! I'm going to obsessed now myself to find one!

                              Very true, have you noticed the 'distressing' on the timber.
                              Insane detail...

                                Actually that's a pretty articulated material with a mixed bump (wood veins, dents, and scratches), a roughness map and a coloured coating.

                                  No....and that's because I refuse to look at Massimo's work with my glasses on in case I notice details like that.

                                  ....and that leads me to my criticism, Massimo's images often seem slightly out of focus....!! ๐Ÿ˜†

                                      What really really annoys me is the stickers... They are horrible and yet, they look great!

                                        [quote="massimo"]Here is a couple of images. I have a dark teak plywood version.
                                        Sorry the images are not particulary good.

                                        When do i get to see it for real?

                                          @JQL Horrible? Really? Hmmmm...very 50's and perhaps a bit "aged", but it had a thought behind I believe.

                                            Yes I know I exagerated a bit, but what I meant to say was that level of detail really makes sense and adds a lot to an image, turning a simple subject into an incredible render. I agree with you though, aged but not horrible... It made sense at that time and it's vintage now. I still don't like it but I love it on the render.

                                            Sorry and congratulations on your render wich is another excellent piece from you!
