Description from the seller
It is a Hollywood Regency occasional table from the 1970s that blends that elegant, dramatic flair of the style with a strongly sculptural presence. The structure is organized around four transparent columns, probably lucite, which bring that sense of luminous lightness so characteristic of the decade. Each column culminates in a bronze eagle head, an ornamental detail that introduces a classic nod reinterpreted in a glamorous, almost cinematic key, as if the table belonged to a sophisticated mid-century decor set.
The two levels of crystal — upper and lower — amplify the clarity of the piece and allow light to pass through, making the gold of the metal and the transparency of the columns dialogue naturally. The lower frame, in wood with a reddish finish and black lines, adds a warm counterpoint that balances the coldness of the glass and the theatricality of the bronze.
The table is kept in good condition, with the caveat of a missing finish on one of the eagles, a detail that does not affect either stability or the overall aesthetic reading of the furniture: the piece maintains its character, its visual symmetry and its decorative presence. That small missing piece is perceived more as a punctual interruption of the ornament than as a structural defect.
Overall, the table perfectly embodies the seventies Hollywood Regency spirit: controlled shine, iconic materials, decorative fantasy, and an elegance that plays between the classical and the modern.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
