About the Item

Designed by Pierre Weckx, this striking coffee table exemplifies the refined modernism that defined Brazilian interiors in the mid-20th century. Weckx, a Belgian-born architect and designer who settled in Brazil, was a key figure in shaping sophisticated, cosmopolitan domestic spaces—particularly through his celebrated work as an interior designer and tastemaker. His furniture designs reflect a disciplined architectural sensibility paired with an intuitive understanding of proportion, movement, and materiality. Crafted in richly toned Caviuna wood and glass, the table features a sculptural frame distinguished by its elegantly curved, open-form legs—an unmistakable hallmark of Weckx’s approach, where structure becomes visual poetry. The inset glass top, seamlessly integrated into the wooden frame, introduces lightness and transparency, allowing the architectural silhouette to remain the focal point. The wood has been carefully refinished and is in excellent condition, enhancing the natural depth and warmth of the Caviuna while preserving the integrity of the original design. Both sculptural and restrained, this coffee table embodies Weckx’s belief in furniture as an extension of architectural space—timeless, functional, and quietly expressive. A rare and sophisticated piece that transitions effortlessly between classic modern and contemporary interiors, offering both historical significance and enduring visual impact.
