Mid-Century Italian Coffee Table by Afra & Tobia Scarpa, Chromed and Glass, circa 1970
Introduce a touch of mid-century sophistication into your living space with this exquisite Italian coffee table by renowned designers Afra and Tobia Scarpa. Created around 1970, this table showcases a heavy chrome-plated flat steel frame, expertly polished to a gleaming finish. The focal point is the original thick clear glass plate. The plate measures 0.5 inches and rests gracefully on the frame. To add both style and functionality, there are four removable brown leather pads at the crossings, along with eight smaller pads to cushion the glass plate. Easily remove the legs for convenience. Lastly, this grand sofa table offers ample space for placing objects or books. The excellent quality and craftsmanship ensure its durability and longevity.
This iconic design was created by Tobia and Afra Scarpa for Dino Gavina in 1968. The table showcases their innovative vision and attention to detail. Tobia Scarpa, an esteemed architect, and Afra Bianchin, his talented wife, formed a successful design studio and made significant contributions to the industrial design world. Tobia Scarpa’s achievements include winning the prestigious Compasso d’Oro award in 1970, solidifying his status as a visionary designer. From his iconic Coronado sofa for B&B Italia to his remarkable furniture collection for Maxalto, his designs are celebrated for their use of precious materials and timeless elegance. Furthermore, beyond furniture design, Scarpa has made significant contributions to architecture, including the design of Benetton’s production-management center and the restoration of historical landmarks. Undoubtedly, his impressive body of work has garnered numerous accolades, including the prestigious Compasso d’Oro for lifetime achievement in 2008.
This remarkable coffee table is a testament to Tobia Scarpa’s creative genius and his lasting impact on the design world. For this reason, it is a true collector’s piece that will elevate any interior with its iconic presence.
