21st Century Modern Coffee Table in Marble & Matte Black Finish
By Duffy London
Located in London, GB
Kronos is the latest modern furniture design from Duffy London. A unique coffee table design within the Solo collection of sculptural works from British designer Chris Duffy. Materials of marble and metal combine to form a modern statement piece in a near-Brutalist style.
An irregular, rock-like configuration splits apart to form the base sections for this coffee table. Each structure echoes the other’s form, emphasising where they were once joined together
A timer-led algorithm produces an infinite number of perfectly aligned geometric shapes. Once paused, a new unique form is generated, meaning no two tables are ever created the same.
Supporting a sumptuous, curved table-top, Kronos is made beautiful...

Archer Coffee Table in Nero Marble & Brass by August Abode
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
Hand-aged brass pairs with curvilinear black marble in our showstopping Archer Table. Statement essentials make everyday life special & our Archer Table is a room-changer. We love this table in a laidback setting, imparting casual elegance with a touch of whimsy.
We always return to nature and this playful form is an abstraction of the pretty petals our frisky pup Archer loves to sniff. It’s distinctive shape is combined with honed marble and aged brass. If you like a living finish as much as we do, try this piece outdoors—the hand-aged brass develops a lovely patina over time.
Dimensions: 45.5”DIA x 15”H
All of our pieces are benchmade in Los Angeles by local artisans. Current lead time: 16 - 20 weeks + transit time. Enquire about customizations, alternate materials & finishes, as well as expedite options. Cover available if intended for outdoor use, upon request.
Our Archer Table is available in several finishes:
Stone Options:
+ Nero
+ Travertine
+ Rojo
Base Options:
+ Hand Aged Bass
+ Blackened
+ Polished Unlacquered Brass
Please note: Natural stone can have a substantial variation from one piece to the next. The last image shows our finish options currently offered. Please keep in mind that the variation that occurs in nature is part of its beauty and is what makes each piece unique. Hand-aged finishes may be slightly different from one item to the next. It is a living finish that may darken or patina with time, depending upon the final use and environment. An outdoor furniture cover can be quoted upon request.

Sculptural Walnut and Glass Coffee Table by Thomas Throop/ Black Creek Designs
Located in New Canaan, CT
The Laguna coffee shown here in walnut and glass can be made in custom sizes, shapes and various woods and finishes. The same design details apply to all possible variations. Popular glass top shapes are oval, rectangular, square and round.
The Laguna series tables are some of my favorite and most challenging to build. Each base is unique as the process and resulting form is ultimately sculptural. The 1/2" thick tempered glass top is supported by a base made of walnut consisting of tapering arcs of varying size which intersect to form a dynamic structure.
The series works well with almost any shaped top be it glass, stone or solid wood. The Laguna series of tables makes the ultimate sculptural statement in any setting. Each table base is unique comprising of a number of tapered arcs joined to create a structure with endless visual possibilities.
All the elements are shaped, joined and finished by hand so as to create a united design.

Antique, New and Vintage Coffee Tables and Cocktail Tables
As a practical focal point in your living area, antique and vintage coffee tables and cocktail tables are an invaluable addition to any interior.
Low tables that were initially used as tea tables or coffee tables have been around since at least the mid- to late-1800s. Early coffee tables surfaced in Victorian-era England, likely influenced by the use of tea tables in Japanese tea gardens. In the United States, furniture makers worked to introduce low, long tables into their offerings as the popularity of coffee and “coffee breaks” took hold during the late 19th century and early 20th century.
It didn’t take long for coffee tables and cocktail tables to become a design staple and for consumers to recognize their role in entertaining no matter what beverages were being served. Originally, these tables were as simple as they are practical — as high as your sofa and made primarily of wood. In recent years, however, metal, glass and plastics have become popular in coffee tables and cocktail tables, and design hasn’t been restricted to the conventional low profile, either.
Visionary craftspeople such as Paul Evans introduced bold, geometric designs that challenge the traditional idea of what a coffee table can be. The elongated rectangles and wide boxy forms of Evans’s desirable Cityscape coffee table, for example, will meet your needs but undoubtedly prove imposing in your living space.
If you’re shopping for an older coffee table to bring into your home — be it an antique Georgian-style coffee table made of mahogany or walnut with decorative inlays or a classic square mid-century modern piece comprised of rosewood designed by the likes of Ettore Sottsass — there are a few things you should keep in mind.
Both the table itself and what you put on it should align with the overall design of the room, not just by what you think looks fashionable in isolation. According to interior designer Tamara Eaton, the material of your vintage coffee table is something you need to consider. “With a glass coffee table, you also have to think about the surface underneath, like the rug or floor,” she says. “With wood and stone tables, you think about what’s on top.”
Find the perfect centerpiece for any room, no matter what your personal furniture style on 1stDibs. Browse a vast selection of antique, new and vintage coffee table and cocktail tables today.
