A silver plated ice pail by Macabo for Aldo Tura, Italy, circa 1970s
A silver plated ice pail of cylindrical form with a flat lid and squared handle, designed by Macabo for Aldo Tura and produced in Italy during the 1970s. The clean, architectural lines and restrained proportions are characteristic of Italian barware of the period, balancing functionality with a refined modern aesthetic. The interior is copper lined, a practical detail intended to improve thermal performance, while the exterior retains a softly reflective silver plated finish.
Macabo was an Italian metalware manufacturer known for producing high quality silver plated objects during the mid to late 20th century, often collaborating with leading designers and brands. The association with Aldo Tura places the piece firmly within the context of Italian modern luxury, where traditional craftsmanship was combined with innovative design and materials.
Condition: overall good vintage condition with light surface wear and minor marks consistent with age and use. The silver plate shows gentle patina and light scratching, with no structural issues noted. Please refer to photographs
Dimensions: 18cm wide, 14cm deep, 17cm high
