ASTI, Italy – There’s no mistaking the quality or look of 20th-century Italian design. It has its own ultra-chic way of creating an impact with even a few sleek lines.

It comes as no surprise that the best in Italian design can be sourced in the country of origin — in particular, Nova Ars auction house in Asti. Nova Ars’ auctions offer absentee and Internet live-bidding options through LiveAuctioneers.com, so it’s easy for fans of Italian design to acquire the pieces they can’t find anywhere else, regardless of where they live.

On July 27, Nova Ars will conduct an online-only 20th Century Italian Design auction. There’s a great mix of merchandise that includes furniture, ceramics, chandeliers and hanging lamps; glass, and many other Italian-made objects. If you like mid-century design, this auction is for you.
