Oval Marquina Black Marble Dining Table by Angelo Mangiarotti
-
Description
Designed by Angelo Mangiarotti for Skipper from the Eros series, iconic and original oval Nero Marquina or black marble dining table with large top fitted on four conical bases, Italy, 1971. This elegant sculptural dining table has an ingenious and organic design with soft curves throughout and beautiful stark veining on the marble. Original Skipper label on underside of table top.
This labeled Mangiarotti Nero Marquina marble dining table is from the original 1971 production for Skipper and very rare to find especially in this very good condition with no chips and some patina on the marble.
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. -
