Osvaldo Borsani for Tecno Coffee Table in Brass and Wood

Creator: Osvaldo Borsani
Offered by: Vintage Domus Srl

Description
Imagine a living room that exudes timeless elegance, where every piece of furniture is carefully chosen to express refinement and restraint. In this context, the coffee table designed by Osvaldo Borsani for his renowned Tecno manufacture in 1950 stands out as an authentic design gem.

With its clean, rigorous lines, this coffee table perfectly embodies Borsani's design philosophy, which combined functionality and beauty in a single object. The structure of the coffee table is supported by four tubular brass feet, the special feature of which is that they can be unscrewed, allowing the table to be easily stored and reducing its bulk. This detail, in addition to revealing an intelligent attention to practicality, underscores the innovative and flexible approach that Borsani has always taken in his work.

The edges of the shelf, also made of brass, elegantly frame the wooden surface, which is in excellent condition, testifying to the quality of the materials used and the care taken in their workmanship. The wood, with its natural and warm texture, contrasts harmoniously with the cold and shiny metal, creating a perfect balance between the two materials.

One of the most fascinating aspects of this coffee table is the design of the feet, which are slightly detached from the body of the coffee table itself. This feature gives the piece of furniture a visual lightness and creates an interplay of volumes and geometric shapes that is both essential and clean. It is precisely in this simplicity that lies its timeless elegance, capable of adapting to any environment.The coffee table is ideal for contemporary living rooms, where it can be included as a design piece that does not go unnoticed, or for living rooms with a mid-century style, where it rediscovers its historical roots. In both contexts, this Osvaldo Borsani coffee table is not just a piece of furniture, but a true work of art that carries with it the history of Italian design and the innovative vision of one of its greatest protagonists.
