European Organic Wood Dining Table with Beautiful Grain, Europe ca 1950s (sold)

$0.00

With a robust organic form and an earth-toned palette, this dining table is the embodiment of 20th century brutalist design. It is somber, giving importance to eerie organic and rugged shapes in dark, earthy tones. The imperfections of the wood and the simple, rough design makes this table stand out with an elemental edge.

The European pieces that appeal to most are the models that were designed with both nature and function in mind, for the sheer fact that they seem completely contemporary and undated. One movement that emphasized these ideals was brutalism. The marks of Brutalism can be observed in the unornamented, solid wood, exposed joinery, and raw wooden surfaces. The design of this table projects an air of strength and solidity, but at the same time, thanks to the sleek lower structure, the design still manages to look airy. The focus is on the tabletop carved from a single piece of wood showcasing its amazing pattern and grain. The uneven rustic shape complements the overall aesthetic, while the simpler legs and double stretchers create balance. This dining table was evidently created with considerable technical expertise most apparent in the tenon joinery and in the woodwork.

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. Organic and brutalist pieces like this table can be incorporated successfully into contemporary and traditional interiors alike thanks to the timelessness of wood and the sheer quality.
