Console table - Metal, Glass - Console or tall glass-and-chrome metal table with two shelves from the 1970s.

Console or tall glass-and-chrome metal table with two shelves from the 1970s. The design is distinguished by a solid cantilever frame with clean geometric lines, completed by a transparent tempered glass upper and lower shelf, which impart a sense of extreme visual lightness. This kind of furniture perfectly embodies the fusion between the Bauhaus tradition and the postmodern trends of the second half of the 20th century.

Materials: Self-supporting slotted frame in curved metal with a mirror-chrome finish; two panes in transparent tempered glass with beveled edges flush with a glossy edge. The piece reflects the purist, rationalist design philosophy typical of German production signed Peter Draenert between the late 1960s and mid-1970s (famed for the Klassik 1022 series).

The design exploits the structural properties of metal and the interlocking of the shelves to achieve a floating, minimalist silhouette. The flat steel-band frame runs continuously, creating an extremely solid and geometric base.

The vertical configuration on a square plan (41×41 cm) at two levels allows use as an entry console, a designer plant stand, or a tall service table.
