About the Item

A masterful expression of postmodern craft, this table by sculptor Curtis Norton blurs the boundaries between sculpture and functional design. Hand-forged from polished stainless steel, the base takes the form of an isosceles triangle in cross-section, unfolding into a ribbon-like curve that suggests motion, continuity, and a tension between strength and lightness. The mirror-polished finish of the stainless steel reflects its surroundings, animating the form with subtle shifts in light and space, while a 15-inch diameter, 3/8-inch thick tempered glass top provides a transparent platform that accentuates the sculptural complexity beneath. The base rests on a solid black granite plinth, grounding the composition with material weight and visual gravity. This piece embodies the ideals of postmodern design: a rejection of strict minimalism in favor of expressive form, material richness, and architectural presence. Norton's work recalls the experimental spirit of 1980s design, where industrial processes and traditional handcraft were combined to create one-of-a-kind, highly conceptual furniture forms. Entirely hand-forged, cut, welded, and polished, this is not a cast or fabricated piece but one shaped by hours of physical engagement and refined technique. As a self-taught artist working outside formal design traditions, Norton’s practice aligns with the broader studio craft movement, where individuality, process, and material become central narratives. Offered from the artist’s personal collection, this rare table functions equally as a work of art and a refined interior element, suitable for collectors and design professionals who value sculptural form and conceptual rigor.
