Circular Rustic Tripod Coffee Table, Europe ca 1950s (sold)

$0.00

This solid stone top coffee table is a perfect example of the European mid-century design emphasis on the connection of everyday objects to nature, and the visual benefits of an understated, organic design.

This coffee table follows the fundamental mid-century design principles both aesthetically and technically. The simple design serves the purpose of showing the understated beauty of natural materials and their endless possibilities under the hands of an expert craftsman. Uncluttered with unnecessary ornamentation, this coffee table has a strong elemental feel to it, with a clear focus on the materials. The surface shows each movement the maker made, creating the raw, rustic look. This technique creates a slightly uneven surface thus revealing the different colours and textures of the stone. Organic design can successfully blur the lines between the “man-made” and the natural environment. As this low coffee table shows, this is achieved by leaving the focus on the material without altering it too much. The straight legs of the metal tripod base are perfect counterbalances to the more robust tabletop, and inject the design with the sleekness of Modernism.
The elemental rusticity is the design’s main charm and also why it is certain to stand out with its hand carved surface. At the same time, this coffee table is also a functional piece that is sure to fit any style of interior.
