About the Item

Italy is a country of enduring symbols, many of which have shaped culture across centuries. Among them, Carrara marble stands as a hallmark of artistic heritage, reaching back to Michelangelo and the Renaissance. In the 1950s, post-war Italian designers sought a fresh and optimistic approach to their work, pairing timeless materials with modern ideas. Influenced by the organic forms of Isamu Noguchi and the restrained elegance of Scandinavian modernism, they turned to Carrara marble, brass, and other fine materials to create light and asymmetrical designs that departed from the rigidity of the pre-war past. This cocktail table is a testament to that spirit. Crafted in Italy during the 1950s, its freeform marble top was hand-cut, ensuring that no two examples were ever identical. This reflects a level of craftsmanship rarely seen today. The marble itself is generous in scale and thickness, retaining its original luster and displaying its veining beautifully. Resting on a concealed wooden platform with tapered brass legs, the substantial stone surface takes on a elegant sense of weightlessness. The table embodies a simplicity only skilled Italian designers could achieve. Its clean sculptural form has kept the design timeless and sought after since its creation. Its generous proportions make it as functional today as it is beautiful. A remarkable piece from every angle, it brings both elegance and ease to any space.
