Stone and Iron Pedestal Coffee Table, Europe ca 1950s
-
Description
Among many other innovations, the mid-century modern movement brought new materials and shapes into existence. Utilizing the natural qualities of stone and combining it with the expertise of its master craftsman, this coffee table is a unique piece that can both dominate and complement a modern space.
The design of this coffee table distils the classic pedestal table down to its striking essentials in charcoal coloured stone. The coffee table's bold round top is made from stone with an appealing pattern and textural surface. As a result, the impression is quite elemental and striking. In comparison, the iron pedestal has a dramatically simple shape and appearance not to avert the attention from the top. The stone surface shows the handwork that shaped it, making it one-of-a-kind. Thanks to the technique, the different colours of the stone are showed off, with the earthly tones creating more depth and visual interest. While uneven, the top still remains functional as it can hold glasses or plates. Overall, this coffee table is striking in balancing large volumes with clean geometrical lines.
The combination of materials and rough surface makes this table a stylish example of modern design’s versatility. It is ideal to set the tone of a space serving as an accent piece or to complement a modern interior.
