Pianca’s Mambo Sideboard: Retro Italian Elegance with a Modern Twist
Pianca introduces the Mambo sideboard – a striking piece by Pier Luigi Frighetto that captures the elegance and flair of 1950s Italian design with a fresh, contemporary spirit. Named after its companion series of occasional tables, Mamboshares their signature curvature and retro-inflected refinement, making it an instant classic for design-led interiors.
Defined by its sculptural form, the sideboard’s boldly contoured doors appear to hover slightly over the structure itself, wrapping around softly rounded corners and revealing a tapered, recessed internal profile. The effect is sleek yet warm, refined yet inviting – a masterstroke in proportion and balance.
Available in a range of sizes and configurations, Mambo adapts effortlessly to your lifestyle. Interior options include drawers, glass holders, bottle storage, and integrated lighting, making it as functional as it is beautiful. Finishes span a sophisticated palette: Canaletto walnut with glossy Moka metal legs for a rich, natural aesthetic; Polvere lacquer, either high-gloss and matte, for a more architectural feel; or a freestanding version in Frassino Miele or Indaco matte lacquer for a playful colour accent.
Every detail, from internal accessories to the choice of finishes, has been thoughtfully designed to offer complete customisation while maintaining a strong visual identity. Mambo is more than just storage; it’s a sculptural presence, a nod to Italian heritage, and a versatile anchor for contemporary living spaces.
