AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful and rare coffee table by Heinz Lilienthal with a tulip-shaped base, Germany, 1960s.
The tabletop is made of black slate mosaic with a round, etched metal or steel plate in the center. It is supported by an elegant, tulip-shaped aluminum base.
Designer: Heinz Lilienthal
Country: Germany
Year: 1960s
Material: Slate mosaic, steel, aluminum
Diameter: 110cm
Height: 52cm
The tabletop, or rather the slate stones, are slightly whitish in one spot, as something must have drawn out some of the oil (see video). We will oil the stones again and hope that this will make the discoloration disappear or improve significantly.
As we trade in vintage furniture, signs of wear are unavoidable and part of the nature of used items. We therefore only point out more significant flaws and damage with separate photos. Nevertheless, we always do our best to capture the condition of the items as accurately as possible.
The goods are subject to the differential taxation scheme pursuant to § 25a UStG; VAT is not itemized on the invoice.
Seller's Story
Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies.
Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt.
To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty.
And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives.
We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy.
We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people.
