Italian Teak Two-Tier Coffee Table with Wavy Glass Supports c.1960
£1,400
This Italian teak two-tier coffee table embodies the elegance and ingenuity of Mid-Century Modern design during the postwar period. The composition is defined by sculptural wavy glass supports connecting the upper and lower teak tiers, their organic rhythm contrasting with the rectilinear frame.
Each element balances structure and lightness, the tapering legs rise with subtle brass shoes, and the floating glass panels create transparency that enhances the table’s architectural poise. The use of teak, prized for its grain and tone, aligns with the Scandinavian Modern influence prevalent across Italian workshops of the 1960s, where craftsmanship met the emerging language of modern living.
