Toncelli Cucine and its “Tea Column”

From the Italian cabinetmaking tradition to contemporary “sartorial” kitchens, Toncelli Cucine, began in the early 60s, in the heart of Tuscany manufacturing wooden handcrafted products, and are now moving towards the future with professional skills renewed by advancements in technology whilst maintaining its origins.11

With the elegant tea column made from Ziricote wood and inspired by the 20th century avant-garde style, Wind 54, is the newest range that Toncelli released at Eurocucina 2014. Distinguished by its minimal design and wealth of charm, where exclusive and innovative materials play the leading role and fully reflect the rich but discreet style of all Toncelli products. 33

Wind 54 is characterised by an island structure with top and round-edged doors made of Eta Blanc cement and the Plinto table made of Ziricote wood, with a thickness of 10 cm and a cement base, resting on a lowered base. The table can be self-supporting or positioned on columns against any wall. The cabinet, with six white glass doors, is presented with an imposing “frame” or Ziricote wood panelling. The interiors are totally white, from the ceramic knives to the plate rack, from the drawers to all the appliances. The cabinet contains a tea column, elegantly made from Ziricote wood and inspired by the 20th century avant-garde style and, styled by famed artisan Piet Mondrian.22

The tea column comprises an oriental kit of unique items and accessories dedicated to the celebration of tea. It consists of a pull-out table with a tray for collecting water, a drawer, two lateral pull-outs and a secret compartment, hidden on the back, with a sliding opening. It can be fitted inside the composition or freestanding, and on request, with legs made of steel or, in a lighter finish, of bamboo wood.
