Description from the seller
Center Table with Integrated Storage Compartment – Italian Manufacture (1950s) in Mahogany and Glass
We present at auction an elegant and dynamic coffee table, made in Italy during the 1950s. A refined example of mid-century design that combines the woodworking mastery of exotic wood with a slender, sculpturally striking structural line.
Design and Features
Dynamic Line: The structure stands out for its tapered legs and inclined uprights, creating a play of taut geometries that gives the furniture a pronounced visual lightness.
Integrated Storage Compartment: The end of the table houses a practical drawer integrated into the wooden body, ideal for uniting aesthetics and functionality, along with a convenient magazine rack on the lower panel.
Material Pairing: The warmth of mahogany with rich grain blends with the clear glass top surface, creating an elegant contrast typical of Italian design of the period.
Lot Conditions: Excellent Conservational State
- Wooden Structure: Solid, stable and fully intact, with the mahogany finish preserving a beautiful patina of the era, only revived by a recent polish.
- Glass Surfaces: Transparent, clean, intact and free of chips or notable defects.
- Overall Condition: The coffee table is in excellent condition, with minimal and normal signs of wear consistent with the authenticity of the piece.
