About the Item

A rare and highly sought-after coffee table by renowned Belgian interior designer and antique dealer Axel Vervoordt, dating from the 1980s. This powerful and restrained design perfectly embodies Vervoordt’s early aesthetic philosophy, in which material honesty, patina, and architectural proportion take precedence over ornament. Made out from richly bamboo wood, the table features a thick, low rectangular top resting on two sculptural block supports in wenge, creating a grounded and monolithic presence. The surface bears a beautifully developed patina, with subtle tonal variations and wear that speak to age and authenticity, reinforcing the wabi-sabi sensibility for which Vervoordt is internationally celebrated. The proportions are calm yet commanding, making the table equally suited for minimalist interiors, curated spaces, or refined eclectic settings. Examples from this early period are increasingly scarce, and pieces of this quality and scale rarely appear on the market. A highly collectible work that bridges architecture, furniture, and art, and an unmistakable expression of Axel Vervoordt’s timeless vision.
