Fontana Arte pair of coffee tables Model 2341 made of brass & glass, Italy 1960s
-
Description
A pair of brass and glass coffee tables, model 2341, produced by Fontana Arte in the 1960s, featuring a transparent glass top and a mirrored glass lower shelf.
Brass and glass; a combination that defines the finest works of Fontana Arte, a brand that shaped the decorative style of the 20th century. In this pair of coffee tables, the materials’ allure is celebrated: fragile yet visually enduring. The glass surfaces are supported by four solid brass, triangular-shaped legs.
The design of these tables highlights the aesthetic potential of brass and glass, with the transparent top exuding a sense of lightness, while the mirrored lower shelf captivates with its depth and rich tonal reflections. These horizontal elements are visually united by the brass pin legs, which, slim and tapered, serve as the sole vertical components of the tables. Their pointed bases anchor them firmly to the ground, evoking the wooden piles that have silently supported Venice's ancient and delicate palazzi for centuries.
This coffee table model, produced by FontanaArte, is listed in period catalogs under the number 2341.
