Alfabeta Wall Shelf
The Alfabeta wall shelf by Emilio Nanni and Fabio Bortolani for Tonelli Design folds a series of glass planes into an open geometric form.
Two wall supports allow the shelf to be fixed in different orientations, changing the arrangement of its display surfaces. Clear, extra-clear, smoked or bronze glass gives the precise outline different degrees of color and transparency.
Every detail, considered.
