Side table - Wood - Original 1950

A kidney-shaped table (German: Nierentisch), an icon of mid-century modern style, popular in the 1950s and 1960s. It is characterized by an asymmetrical, organic top shape resembling a kidney, which was very fashionable at the time.

The tabletop has a distinctive, eye-catching "sunburst" pattern (sun rays) in black and cream colors, often made of plastic with a slightly glossy, pearlescent finish (Formica).
It has three slanted, downward-tapering wooden legs, which give it a light appearance, and a metal chrome edge around the tabletop.
Originally and still commonly used as a small auxiliary table, a plant stand (German: Blumentisch) or a coffee table.
This is a coveted vintage item, sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts of that era.
