Midcentury Italian Walnut Valet by Fratelli Reguitti in the Style of Ico Parisi

The piece itself is composed of a walnut frame/hanger and change or cufflink holder. There is a double rack on the bottom for shoes and four caster wheels for easy mobility. The top bar (intended for hanging scarves, ties, or pants) can be extended 1.5″ in either direction by pulling out the brass rod.
There is tarnish to the brass, as pictured. The walnut has been refinished and is in excellent shape.
