Gubia cabinet by Gordon Guillaumier for Alf DaFrè

Dezeen Showroom: Italian furniture company Alf DaFrè has released a wooden sideboard characterised by dappled surfaces that appear to have been carved into by a chisel.

The Gubia cabinet is named after a carpentry tool called a gauge chisel that can be used to sculpt wood, forming concave areas defined by ridges around their perimeters.

The Gubia cabinet is designed and manufactured by Alf DaFrè

Doors and handles are concealed by the characterfully mottled texture, creating a continuous appearance across surfaces.

The frame is made from metal while two wood options are offered for the doors and top: Terra or Canapa Oak Fashion Wood.
