The Luigi Brusotti company based in Via Solari in Milan was active since the mid-19th century in the manufacture of engraved glass, lamps and glass furniture and, after suffering extensive damage during the Second World War, closed its doors in 1960. The activity, handed down from the founder Luigi to his son Ambrogio, focused mainly on the creation of unique pieces, as in the case of this sliding door, the decoration of which was designed in 1937, in memory of her honeymoon trip to Africa, by the client herself, Maria Rosa Mocchetti, for the living room of her house in Legnano, furnished in 20th century style with glass coffee tables made by Brusotti. Stained glass door with oak frame and worked metal handles. The glass, in pinkish tones, is decorated with stylised figures of African animals and silhouettes of trees.
