Carrara Marble Console from Eros Series by Angelo Mangiarotti
-
Description
Designed by Angelo Mangiarotti for Skipper from the Eros series, iconic Carrara marble console table with large elliptical top fitted on two conical bases. This elegantly organic console table has beautiful subtle veining throughout. Original Skipper label on underside of each console table. These labeled Mangiarotti Carrara marble consoles are rare to find from the original 1971 production for Skipper, Italy.
Another original 1971 labeled Mangiarotti for Skipper Carrara marble console table available to make a rare pair - incollect ref 606305.
Given Mangiarotti’s research on furniture without joints, this console table was an example of the result of a gravity interlocking design in which the console top because of its weight stably fits into the truncated conical legs. The word Eros refers to the male-female coupling of this interlocking solution. It is truly an ingenious and elegant design. -
